“Bionic systems – wearable robots designed to replace, augment, or interact with the human body – have the potential to meaningfully impact quality of life.” (Azocar, 2020)

The impact of bionics on quality of life is perhaps never more evident than it is at CYBATHLON, an Olympic-style event to showcase the most advanced bionic technologies in use… changing the lives of people living with disabilities.

VICE’s Wilbert L. Cooper travelled to Zurich in 2016 to see the first-ever ‘bionic Olympics’, and discovered a host of technologies that are expanding what it means to be human.

This video is a must-watch to see truly remarkable feats… the improbable is made possible by innovations in human bionics. Check out the CYBATHLON website for current and future events.
