Terminally-ill roboticist on his way to becoming the world's first full cyborg

Firstpost  

Scott-Morgan has announced the end of ‘Peter 1.0’ and the start of his life as a cyborg. An American scientist battling a muscle-wasting disease has announced that he is in-transition to become “the world’s first full cyborg.” The procedure is a part of a life-extension experiment involving the scientist — a world-renowned roboticist — who was told he had a year to live. Once a full cyborg, Scott-Morgan will be able to control an artificial intelligence avatar that resembles his own face before his degenerative disease consumes his vital organs. Part of the scientist’s full cyborg technology is a revolutionary eye-tracking technology that will allow him to control multiple computers with his eyes alone. A day before he underwent the laryngectomy, Scott-Morgan announced the end of ‘Peter 1.0’ and the start of his life as a ‘Full Cyborg’ in the making – as ‘Peter 2.0’.
