Biorobotics is a term that loosely covers the fields of cybernetics, bionics and even genetic engineering as a collective study. Biorobotics is often used to refer to a real subfield of robotics: studying how to make robots that emulate or simulate living biological organisms mechanically or even chemically. The term is also used in a reverse definition: making biological organisms as manipulatable and functional as robots, or making biological organisms as components of robots.

  • Biorobotics is a term that loosely covers the fields of cybernetics, bionics and even genetic engineering as a collective study. Biorobotics is often used to refer to a real subfield of robotics: studying how to make robots that emulate or simulate living biological organisms mechanically or even chemically. The term is also used in a reverse definition: making biological organisms as manipulatable and functional as robots, or making biological organisms as components of robots. In the latter sense biorobotics can be referred to as a theoretical discipline of comprehensive genetic engineering in which organisms are created and designed by artificial means. The creation of life from non-living matter for example, would be biorobotics. The field is in its infancy and is sometimes known as synthetic biology or bionanotechnology. The replicants in the film Blade Runner would be considered biorobotic in nature: (synthetic) organisms of living tissue and cells yet created artificially. Instead of microchips, their brain is based on ganglions/artificial neurons. (en)
  • A biorobótica é um termo que cobre os campos da cibernética, biônica e a engenharia genética como um estudo coletivo. O termo biorobótica é comumente usado como referência ao estudo da criação dos robôs que emulam ou simulam organismos biológicos vivos, ele é também utilizado ao contrário: tornando organismos biológicos manipuláveis e funcionais como robôs. Em outro sentido a biorobótica se refere a uma disciplina teórica da engenharia genética aonde os organismos são criados e projetados poar meios artificiais. A criação de vida de uma matéria não-viva por exemplo, é biorobótica. Devido ao seu estado altamente teórico, ela é atualmente limitada à ficção científica, o campo atual em seu começo é a biologia sintética. Os "Replicants" no filme Blade Runner podem ser considerados biorobótica na natureza: organismos de tecido vivo e células criadas artificialmente. Porém esse experimentos são considerados ilegais en diversos países, mas poderão ser usados para salvar vidas futuramente. (pt)
