Possible Upgrades on the Horizon.


Would you change your human eyes for "upgraded" bionic ones?

   More than 14 years has passed since the retinal project started and scientists are working on to bring a unique and useful upgrade to people that have low to no vision. Few years ago a viable retinal prosthesis was brought to the market by America. It's not something that we could say we didn't expect. Just as every human part is researched and developed in a "robotic" way same goes with the eyes and retinas as well.

   Although a lot of people are pleased to hear and see what the future holds for human kind and the improvements we are going to be able to have in a few years. Some others don't lose the opportunity to research the project a bit further and discover the possible upgrades that could happen through out this project as well.

   Is it considered a bad idea to change a part of your body that it's 100% healthy? To be specific a lot of people are looking at this project somehow like a garage of a human body where you are able to choose and change body parts based on the abilities you will get from the upgrade. Possible changes could be achieved by this project alone in the future such as improved bionic eyes replacing our - even if  healthy - not so powerful in comparison human eyes. Would you consider humans with perks like night-vision and adjustable zoom eyes upgraded versions of our nature? It's possible that we are going to have access to technology we were only able to see in the movies back in the 80's. There are possible ways that we can close the gaps and solve the problems in our bodies that many people call nature and refuse to change but on the other hand many people would love to get one step closer to what we call "Cyborgs". 

   Is this blaspheme towards our the Greater Existence we call God or is it part of our nature to evolve and discover our inner worlds? Soon we will find out through experience.The fact that we can create better versions of our body parts is a big step for technology but is it the same for human kind? When does technology cross the line that humanity holds and where do we lose ourselves? Is this new age going to create a huge gap between two groups of people accepting or not this rapid technological evolution? Science and Religion were never meant to get along with each other and that is on of the main head to head disagreements that is probably going to happen ever.

Where is the gaming performance going to be led to?



What is the best Performance for Gamers?
    a future's Blog.

   What people call best performance mainly vary on their own expectations and opinions mostly. But it's not a big cycle after all. It always comes and goes depending on the current "best specifications" that industry provides people with.

   The main idea of the best gaming experience came to a point that is used and manipulated by mostly AAA-Companies and has now created a myth through out the years that our eyes have a limit of 60 fps. What if the standards we had in mind for so long are not the real capabilities of ourselves.  

   People around the world is believed to be able to see different rates of fps mainly depending on their brain training and how their brains are used daily. Basically the brain's performance onto the eye's FPS rate is a really long story and has a lot of categories to rely on. Though if it's true and we all have different capabilities of FPS but same limits how could we possibly boost our eye *powers* to the limits?

   Sometimes buying a super-powerful computer doesn't always guarantee you the best of performance that it could possibly reach through the games you play due to games having fps limits that probably an average computer could keep up to as well. That makes you feel twice before spending more money on a gadget. Or even thinking about how long you are going to use this computer rather how nice and smoothly is going to work. Makes people think there is no other option. But what other ways could be found to achieve full potential through out research combined with technology?

The "complete" Eye.


The main idea and the aspects of Gaming Experience.
    a future's Blog.

By: Andreas Katsouris


   How many times were we driven away from reality based on the Myths and the actual limitations we've been hearing for a long time now, based on how many fps a human eye can see? There are a lot of stories and tails so no-one could accurately say what's our eye's limit. 
   
   What happens when the information gathered so long leads us to the conclusion that each person has different limitations and strengths? If so how does that relate to every person and is there a way to upgrade it?

Fig.01
   The difference between people's eyes is believed to vary based on their jobs, exercise and the way they usually use their eyes combined with their brain's capabilities on everyday basis. That could possibly mean that your brain is going to try and make your eyes adapt to the situation you are in, which that possibly makes you able to see differences that you couldn't before if you didn't use as much potential as needed. Of course that vary on the situation you are in and the light and darkness your eyes encounter. 


   It's said that army warplanes' pilots are known to have one of the most "complete" and upgraded eye analyse speed which that lets them recognize and call the different warplanes from afar in really high speed. That also is known for gamers who through out their gaming life they got a better understanding of the environment they live in and faster tracking of differences and multiple things that are moving simultaneously.
   
   What does this make us believe? Is it possible for the human eye to physically evolve and make humans see and understand in a different way as well as faster and better? Or is it upon the technology to finalize this goal and reach it combined with the physical evolution of the human eye's potential.
