This book introduces the concept of combining artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of things (IoT) with real human organs to form a cybernetic organism or cyborg. It is a concept of man–machine mixture which helps in restoring or enhancing the ability of a body part by integrating some technology or artificial component with that body part. These smart artificial organs act as a substitute for real organs having various capabilities like scanning the body, detecting and transmitting t...
