Water Scarce After the Apocalypse? Install These Water-Conserving Cyborg Internal Organs

Very interesting, the video really makes you consider the value of water, also all the sound of water in the video kind of made me need to use the bathroom.

So when is this video game coming out? ... oh... wha?...

(This idea has need today, and not for post apocalypse)

How about using the electricity to power a device? Trickle charge your post apocalypse laptop trough your fingers while you type! =oD I guess it is a little tongue in cheek, but if this is for post apocalypse, the maker is assuming we can make these items (or stock pile) and have the ability for some pretty extreme surgery when all of civilization has gone to bust.

So this makes a little more sense if you develop it now, in which case, you are wasting a huge energy source in the modern, pre-apocalypse world. However, I am not sure I like the idea of adding myself to the power grid...

When this stuff actually comes around why not use it on our first trip to mars. Saves weight and resources on the trip making the trip safer.

this looks all good in theory,but how do we know if it'll work that well once inside the body?
we don't know if there could be side effects or it could be an irritant or what sort of toll it'll take on the body.
and besides the body is great at adapting itself anyway.
the last thing you'd want at the end of the world would be insertions you'd rather be without.

i like the idea of this, i also would like to take this time to mention an idea i had for a special organ. this organ, would take an electric charge, straight from the mains line, and synthesize ATP from ADP and phosphates.

it'd go great with this, i mean we are already treading on the sanctity of the human body so we might as well go all the way y'know? and with this and the organ that i was thinking about creating we could probably subsist off of an acre of land.

to mars or bust!

Muad'dib! Muad'dib!

It does appear that oil companies' do intend to destroy Earth's water resources in order to force purchase of that too once natural resources are depleted. Oil company executives are not human in their existence.

"Renal Fecular Dehydrator: Located in rectal ampulla, the dehydrator works to elongate fecal duration in the large intestine and squeeze out any remaining water."
Sounds like he might get constipation.

In the future, when these devices are needed for survival, I think we humans will be pre-occupied more by gangs of bandits that wish to mug us and still these gadgets off our bodies. After the mugging, we will be butchered, barbequed and made into jerky for later dinning. Finally, the future history will be recorded with bad science fiction movies.

@Dr. Dawdy. I like that idea. Our bodies are designed for life on pre-modern Earth. If people are going to Mars (especially permanently), why not surgically adapt them for that ahead of time instead of trying to adapt a Martian environment to the human body.

I guess this type of technology makes obsolute the skin water recycling suits from the movie - DUNE.

See life in all its beautiful colors, and
from different perspectives too!

soon the human race will develop a way to "suppress" the human need of water and in essence make us live longer.

@Robot,

sounds a lot like "The Road Warrior"(Aussie Accent) lol

JediMindset,
You read my digital mind, sir. ;)

I'd take an Arakis StilSuit over internal implants any day. The last thing I want to do is to have to charge the batteries on my anus before I can lay some logs.

First this is just an art concept no real engineering has been done second such implants could be a liability in a post apocalyptic world as finding spare parts in a post apocalyptic world most likely would be much more difficult then finding water.

Besides NASA already made a device about the size of a small refrigerator that can take even filthy water found in a stagnant pond and turn it into drinkable water for an entire village.
Unlike these implants it's a fairly simple device that you could easily repair under primitive conditions
The navy has a hand held device that can make sea water drinkable.

I'd also feel better about having an authentic Fremen made stillsuit and full Fremkit, weirding module...of course we substitute other equipment for the Great Maker Shai Hulud-specific stuff. Then, we probably want actual Fedaykin clearance to be buying these and publicly wearing them around; especially when set slip-fashioned. They behead impostors.

The apocalypse!!!! Not worried at all anymore. Just imagine the possibilities of such a technology. Who knows water shortage in Africa might come to a screaming halt. Then once Africa's water problem is solved it will be able to develop at the same pace of every developed nation.

@jakegeographic

Hefty price for something that could not even happen in your life time, or good idea but this doesn't help me when the apocalypse hits and theres no cyborg installers still alive.

agree
