Biological Machines Trends: Market Research Report
The report illustrates about the recent advances in the engineering technology assisting in the development of biological machines with mechanical and electrical sensors. 'Biological machines (also known as a cellular system) can be defined as cellular devices designed to carry out certain functions such as sensing, protein expression, transport, information processing and actuation, inside a micro-environment.' In addition, the report also details about the development of visual systems and retinal implants, cortical implants, auditory systems, and alternate technical approaches.
