Duc Jessop-10

Duc gets his prosthetic leg refitted with synthetic skin.[1]

An Artificial limb (better known as a prosthesis[note 1]) is an artificial device designed to replace a missing extremity.

Mechanics[]

By the year 2016, technological advancements in artificial limbs have reached a point where cybernetic limbs are no longer a potential, but a reality.

In at least one instance, Mark-1 pilot, Duc Jessop, used a cybernetic limb with a special synthetic skin called "synthax skin" that could mimic the function of living tissue.[1] Additionally, when required, the cybernetic limb in question could be upgraded.[2]

Notes[]

  1. Greek meaning "addition, application, attachment"
