The ability to give sight to a blind person via a bionic eye depends on the circumstances surrounding the loss of sight. For retinal prostheses, which are the most prevalent visual prosthetic under development (due to ease of access to the retina among other considerations), patients with vision loss due to degeneration of photoreceptors (retinitis pigmentosa, choroideremia, geographic atrophy ...
Shields and Yarnell's specialty was a series of skits called The Clinkers, in which they assumed the personae of robots, with many individual, deliberate motions (as opposed to normal smooth motion) stereotypical of robots and early animatronics, enhanced by their ability to refrain from blinking their eyes for long stretches of time.

Ai-Da can be displayed in either a standing or seated position; although it has legs, it cannot walk. [12] A pair of cameras in the robot's eyes allow the robot to both make eye contact and, in conjunction with a computer vision algorithm and a modified robotic arm, create sketches of the robot's surroundings.

The robot was used in an orthopaedic surgical procedure on 12 March 1983, at the UBC Hospital in Vancouver. The next great step was in 1985. in brain biopsy under CT guidance with the assistance of a robotic arm—PUMA560. [6] Over 60 arthroscopic surgical procedures were performed in the first 12 months, and a 1985.
