Cyborgs are coming! A new polymer coating may help brains merge with machines

Techlogy is growing at an ermously high rate. We humans are creating smarter AI, better vehicles, stealthy machines and w recent reports revealed that scientists have developed a new bio-syntic coating for electronic components. This bio-syntic coating can help scientists merge AI with human brain.

Scientists have developed a new bio-syntic coating

As surprising as it sounds, it only presents us with an idea that this discovery can prove positive outcomes in creating smarter and reliant robots. As per scientists, this polymer coating can help world to overcome a fundamental challenge around connecting electronics to humans. Gold, silicon, and steel, which are traditional microelectronic materials do t promise much expectancy in comparison to this polymer. When implanted, se classic microelectronic materials disrupt flow of electrical signals transmitted between computers and body.

However, researchers believe that this new polymer could solve this problem. y are hoping that this bio-syntic material can provide a polymer coating for components that connect to human tissue. A professor of materials science at University of Delaware and also study leader, David Martin wrote, “We started looking at organic electronic materials like conjugated polymers that were being used in n-biological devices.” He also mentioned that “We found a chemically stable example that was sold commercially as an antistatic coating for electronic displays.”

What is this polymer coating called and how it works?

bio-syntic polymer coating, which is kwn as PEDOT, could help scientists create an interface for electronic hardware to connect with organic tissue without causing any harm. This new discovery could possibly improve performance of surgeries, medical implants and more by reducing ir opposition to an electric current. This will t only help in increasing signal quality but also battery life of components. researchers believe inserting materials into a human’s tissue could help connect ir brain to a computer.

This could be first step towards creating real-life cyborgs. We have only seen and experienced such things on television or in cinema halls. As much as it seems exciting, one can possibly see in near future cyborgs could be a human reality using this polymer coating.
