This panel will address new types of emerging wearable technologies that control the human body or augment it with new capabilities by building upon our body's electrical properties. Such devices use electrical signals running through the body to control muscles, provide force feedback, control perception or create new sensing technologies. For example, Revel is a wearable device we developed at Disney Research. It injects a signal into the body to modify our tactile perception of the environment by providing artificial tactile sensations almost anywhere; this includes displays, walls, objects and human skin. The human body and hardware are interdependent; the technology augments the body's capabilities, while using it as a fundamental functional component. After presenting a brief history of human augmentation in art and science, I will present the state of the art of such emerging research efforts, discuss future work and applications, and their potential implications.
