Project Bionic Yourself (B10N1C) is a small implant for your arm that makes you a bionic-superhero. The idea comes from utilizing technology to give you a super ability such as wireless control devices by moving a single finger, sense electromagnetic fields, and even scan RFID keys while all being stored inside your body. While these are a few examples, the possibilities range much further. It's also a user-integrated hacker tool that has the opportunity to change life as we know it.

The goal of the B10N1C is to explore the application of a small, safe, robust implant that communicates with the outside world through technology and the various user interfaces found in one’s day to day life.

The proposed project hinges on the idea of becoming bionically similar to Robocop. Using my knowledge of implantable materials (silicone, polyurethane, etc), I hope to upgrade my body to communicate with the tech-friendly culture that we live in today.

By having the system permanently embedded in your body, you have a different type of controlled environment which cannot be interfered with by the various day to day lives of people.

The electronic components within the system are small but require a 3D model to assist in keeping the system as small as possible. A draft of the 3D design can be see below.

Safety and Materials

  • Bionic Yourself (B10N1C) shell/enclosure will be made from a medical grade silicone
  • 316L Stainless Steel EMG Terminals will be utilized by piercing Barbels MAKE-UB312-micro.
  • Special super safe Lipo battery Fullriver (301218HS20C)
  • Humidity sensor (HTU21D) for safety, if humidity level rises inside enclosure, that means it is time to remove the device.


Reference

  • EMG circuit from BITalino project (page 32,41)
  • Adafruit Arduino libraries and reference schematic for MMA8451, HTU21D, NRF8001.


Project Schedule

  • Mechanical design, large electronic component arrangement [ DONE ]
  • Breadboarding and making final decision on components [ DONE ]
  • Design schematic and PCB in Eagle [ IN PROCESS ]
  • Assemble and test without implanting
  • Implant in arm at a licensed body modification studio

Hackaday provides the best place to publish this project, because it is a project that hackers will appreciate. Part of the appeal in releasing this project on Hackaday is to open the doors to criticism and improvement. Let's build the smallest, safest, simplest, and most robust low-energy implant with uploading Arduino code over the air.

  • 1 × INA333 Amplifier and Linear ICs / Instrumentation Amplifiers
  • 1 × AD8692ARMZ Amplifier and Linear ICs / Operational Amplifiers
  • 1 × MMA8451 14-bit/8-bit LowPower Digital Accelerometer
  • 8 × Bright white SMD leds (0603 package)
  • 1 × SPU0410HR5H-PB MEMS Microphone

Any chance you need beta testers for the project, I'd love to help with this type of technology

Super cool project! Like others, I would see a 32bit MCU better suited for the job than a tiny Atmega328. One of the suggestions of using an ESP8266 for wifi + arm processor was a good one although I'm not sure about energy consumption...

Hit me up if you're still looking for beta testers :)

If there is any way I can help you with?

I am willing to test this on myself when a prototype is ready and I am also willing to fund your project. 

I can also involve in coding or electronics. Since I am a student in electrical engineering doing my bachelor, I could maybe help you if you need some help.

  Are you sure? yes | no

Cool project. Very cool renderings. Can you shortly point out how you did them? What's your toolchain?

Thanks

This is pretty cool. I would love to have something like this but I WOULD be concerned about the health effects. Personally, I wouldn't use this unless the enclosure were hermetically sealed in surgical titanium. I know this might be unreasonable for several reasons (including RF shielding which would severely hinder communications) but I wouldn't want a brittle plastic in my arm that could break if I fell on it. (I know this is a little unlikely, but it's just me) Also, I think you should work on getting it smaller. Believe me, I am aware of how difficult that can be, but for something IN my body, I'd like it to be as space saving as possible! Still, nice work, I like this one! 

  Are you sure? yes | no

Very good initiative! If it had a glucose level sensor for diabetes patient. I'd be your first customer!

  Are you sure? yes | no

I see this needing to be both NFC 13.56MHz      And. RFID 125MHz.    

Love the project. And when your read would. Love to be a tester

  Are you sure? yes | no
