Benefits:
- The sensor technology can be very expensive, as an artificial arm for example, can cost up to $100, 000. With the rapid advancement in technology though, the cost of production can be lowered. 3D printers can replicate a lower quality of these products.
- As costs of production lower and the demand increase, companies could charge reasonable prices while still making profit.
- A new workforce could be formed, as artificial limbs with time could function even better than normal ones.
Disadvantages:
- Ethical implications could come into the frame as using someone disabilities for a company’s profit.
- Implanting sensory chips in the brain of a human could cause health issues and permanent brain damage.
- The use life of the chips could require multiple surgery, which is not only expensive but also dangerous.
