The World's "First" Recognized Cyborg Hears ColorsBy Norman Chan Neil Harbisson was born with achromatopsia, a rare condition that causes complete color blindness. In 2004, Harbisson and Adam Montandon developed the eyeborg, a device that translates colors into audio notes. With prolonged use of the device, Harbisson adapted to the association between the visual and audio; his technological enhancement now matches over 300 different sounds to segments of the visual spectrum. It even allows him to perceive infrared. (h/t Kottke)
