I think this one is really inspirational. I love how he says that bionics can turn disability into ability. What I really find amazing about bioengineering is that you can give people the ability to live a normal, healthy life which many of us take for granted. The Paralympics were a great inspiration. It's amazing to see how people can still succeed so much regardless of the hinderances they suffer. And it's because of the individual's perseverance but also, how advanced technology is and how it will continue to advance. (Little existential side note: I honestly think technology is amazing. It's hard to imagine living without is as it is all around us. It's so interesting seeing how technology develops and I find it quite sad that I'll never know how technology will continue developing in the far future and how different the world will be. Maybe that's why sci-fi is so fascinating).
It's so interesting how he explains the mechanics of how his bionics work. Engineering is all around us and most things are made to improve out lives, whether it be through entertainment or making it easier to travel. But it's amazing how engineering can now be done on a personal level to directly improve an individual's quality of life.

This technology they have made is just wow. Imagine: no animal testing, no clinical trials, saves a lot of money, easy to use etc. And it's so cool that you can connect the chips up to make an miniature human body.
I quite enjoyed making this blog post because I got to use the HTML tab to embed the videos and I attempted to understand the HTML which was fun!
