2. The forums at BionicMe.com are allowing humanity to move
forward through the study and discussion of bionics, robotics,
prosthetics, artificial intelligence, nanotechnology and virtual
reality.
Bionics is no longer a one way street, where nature is studied,
copied, and implemented into artificial systems.
We give you updates on recent activities.
We have created a community to share the world of Bionics.

Can robots be racist?

4. When people think about robots, many people imagine scary
military robots that can walk and talk like in the movies.
Robotics has been a big industry for decades. Your car was
built by robots. Some of your electronic gadgets were built by
robots.
They are still precisely controlled by humans who have input
3D drawings and programmed each and every move the
robotic arm makes.

5. The Turing Test challenges scientists to develop a software
program that can "fool" the judges into thinking they are
interacting with a real person.
The Turing Test has long been considered the gold standard
for proving AI. But now that it has officially been beaten,
where will we go next?

 Obviously humans can't react that fast, so it's the programs
that do the dirty work.
Business Decisions
 Until now, computers were used to crunch numbers. It
started with accounting spreadsheets and has now entered
the age of "Big Data".
Entertainment
 Besides trivial entertainment, AI could be used as a
personal guide for our days and our lives. Think voice
commands and Siri times a million.

7. There are a lot of hearing aid companies that you can choose from. It’s
a good idea to stick to a trusted model from a trusted brand. This is

Finally, whichever brand you choose, make sure they have
a long history and a good reputation (all the brands

9. 1. Behind the Ear or BTE.
This is one of the most popular types of hearing aids because
of its durability. Cleaning and maintaining it is easy.
2. On the Ear.
This is a better option because it provides better comfort
since it doesn’t give you that feeling that something is
plugged in your ear.

10. 3. In the Ear.
While bigger than the other types of hearing aids, a lot of
people prefer this type because it’s easier to handle than the
smaller types.
4. In the Canal
They are the smallest because they’re worn right inside the
ear canal. Most people wouldn’t notice that you’re wearing it.
It is virtually unnoticeable.

11. With these different types of hearing aids, one thing is certain
– you need to go for a trusted brand. This is the best way to
ensure that you get the best hearing aid for your needs and
preferences.
If you want more information on hearing aid brands, check
out our article. It covers the major manufacturers and gives

12. Of course, make sure to let your hearing specialist know of
your preferences so he can consider them when he makes his
recommendation.
A final consideration is the ability to work on your own device
to change the batteries or to perform minor hearing aid
repairs.
Be sure to check with the manufacturer before trying your
own repairs, even if you're a "do it yourselfer".
