cybernetic organism
A cybernetic organism, or "cyborg," is a being that combines biological parts with artificial components—such as machines or electronics—to enhance or restore functions. This integration allows the organism to perform tasks beyond natural capabilities or recover from impairments. For example, a person with a prosthetic limb controlled by advanced electronics and sensors is a cyborg. The concept illustrates how technology and biology can work together seamlessly, blurring traditional distinctions between living organisms and machines to improve health, abilities, or functionality.
