Sometimes when just the front of someone's eye is removed they hollow out a tooth to act as the container for an artificial lens.

A study on how users relate to their #Prostethics shows the user develops proprioception and situational awareness for the aid device, even when that device is a robot instead of a #Prostetic limb.

Researchers from the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT) in Genoa (Italy) and Brown University in Providence (U.S.) have discovered that people sense the hand of a humanoid robot as part of their body schema, particularly when it comes to carrying out a task together, like slicing a bar of soap.
Earlier today, a little girl (like, 4-5y/o) and (presumably) her mother walked past my #bench. In the distance I saw that the girl walking weirdly; as if limping but a little too fast?
When she got a little closer, I could tell that one of her legs is artificial and the knee stiff. I then also noticed that one of her arms is visibly crippled/didn't really have a hand.
..and yet she was walking undeterred, gaily singing and got her mother smiling at it.
That touched me a little :)

MIT researchers have developed a groundbreaking three-layer bionic knee prosthesis—integrating muscle tissue, bone, and a robotic limb—that restores natural push-pull muscle function, reestablishes bone load-bearing with a titanium implant, and enhances mobility and “embodiment,” giving lower-leg amputees unprecedented comfort, agility, and a feeling that the prosthetic is truly part of their body.
