The deaf begin to hear. The blind begin to see. Once damaged hearts begin to pump blood. Forget "wearable tech"--we've entered a zone where deploying engineering and circuitry inside the human body can help erase disabilities and, more controversially, enhance human capacities beyond their evolutionary limits. Peek into a future where technology will have the capacity to make us stronger, faster and by some measures, better.
This program is part of the Big Ideas series.
