Abstract
Human body digitalization, in other words, “mating” with technology, is characterized by a fusion of technologies that shrinks the boundaries of physical, digital, and biological world. For a long time, humans have been considered the pinnacle of evolution: that humanity has achieved its evolutionary peak and has nothing to evolve into. Today those who try to foresee the future of mankind and his evolution are thinking of cyborg image, a combination of a biological creature and a technological masterpiece. Electronics world is progressing at a very fast rate and today there are many revolutionary ideas, projects already underway that will end up being traded tomorrow or in a few years. The three authors, specialized in electronic field, predict that with the unprecedented development of electronics, there will be also a major change of paradigm in medicine, security, transportation, as well as in industrial business and marketing arena.
