Scientists have managed to make a bionic man of artificial limbs called Rex. Rex (robotic exoskeleton) is made ​​using the technically most perfect limbs and organs that were collected from laboratories worldwide.

He shows that science starts to flattens the science fiction in an attempt human bodies to be replaced with alternatives that are made by human being. However, this raises some ethical issues, since the use of artificial limbs and organs, scientists can not only replace certain parts of the human body, but also can significantly improve. This has led to warnings that can create a modern Frankenstein. This bionic man is made for a series of "How to build a biological man," which will be broadcast on C4.

 Rex components include hand movements with a radius of 26 degrees, which is only one degree less than the actual capabilities of the human hand, glasses that send pictures in the pupil of the eye which then sends electrical impulses to the brain and heart that are powered by batteries. Exoskeleton also has joints that use a motor to mimic the action of human muscles and tendons, which created professor Hugh Herr. The only authority that scientists have failed to fully replicate the human brain which is composed of one million neurons. It is definitely the most complex structure in the universe. However, scientists from the University of Southern California studying electrical signals in the brain of mice to develop a microchip that could one day replace the memory, and even cure Alzheimer's disease in collaboration with the brain. Although bionic man shows how science progresses, the question is if really means to be human and where science can take us into the future.

"When our bodies are concerned, I think there is a danger to change a lot of things that make our humanity. We can create new creatures that can turn against us at some point, as the myth of Frankenstein. It will be a sign that we have gone too far, "said George Anans, Professor of Bioethics and Human Rights at the University of Boston.
