“…Al mismo tiempo, el estigma social asociado con dichos dispositivos se ha ido reduciendo con el paso del tiempo. La familiarización de las personas con objetos insertables no tecnológicos en el cuerpo, como anticonceptivos o piercings, ha contribuido al surgimiento y aceptación del uso de dispositivos insertables tecnológicos [6]. Junto con este crecimiento, han surgido tendencias en el desarrollo de aplicaciones para el consumidor.…”

Hasta hace poco, la posibilidad que los seres humanos portáramos dispositivos electrónicos en nuestro cuerpo era sólo planteado por la ciencia ficción. Esto ha cambiado con la aparición de los dispositivos insertables, aparatos electrónicos que las personas se introducen para asegurar confidencialidad en información o aumentar el control de acceso a recursos estratégicos. Dado que esta tecnología se encuentra aún en sus estados iniciales de adopción, existen muy pocos estudios que identifiquen los factores que influencian a las personas a aceptar/rechazar este tipo de aparatos. Nosotros estudiamos un conjunto de nueve factores extraídos de una versión extendida de UTAUT y que podrían predecir la disposición a usar insertables. Los datos fueron recolectados mediante la aplicación de una encuesta a 183 estudiantes universitarios chilenos y fueron analizados usando un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales. Los resultados indican que cinco factores afectan la intención de usar insertables: hábito, motivación hedónica, influencia social, expectativa de esfuerzo y de rendimiento, explicando el 73,6% de la varianza de la intención de uso de insertables. Factores relacionados al juicio ético de los respondientes no fueron significativos de la intención de uso. Estos dispositivos tienen un enorme potencial de innovación y económico que recién está dando los primeros pasos. En un futuro mediano, las personas podrían voluntariamente insertarse estos aparatos para mejorar sus funciones cognitivas y/o las empresas podrían pedir a sus empleados colocarse estos dispositivos para seguridad y control. Esto obligará a los países a regular la utilización de insertables, tal que su uso se dé en un marco legal que impida potenciales abusos de parte de las personas o las empresas en lo que sería cercano al mundo Orweliano. Consecuentemente, los resultados de este estudio son de interés tanto a la comunidad académica como profesional.

“…These are the 'implantables' in which technological incorporations are designed for medical purposes, and the 'insideables' in which technologies are merged into human bodies and are often for nonmedical reasons (Heffernan et al, 2017).…”

“…Offering a different perspective, Whitby (2006) included a discussion on people's pessimistic views about the danger and threats derived from quests for such scientific innovations giving TA B L E 1 Category, rationale, types of cyborgs, achievement level, device type, and examples (based on Heffernan et al, 2017;Pelegrín-Borondo et al, 2017;Kiyoshi Murata et al, 2019) metaphors about AI complementing human intelligence as 'a scientific account of the formation of a rainbow that does not detract from its beauty' (Mahmud, 2015, p. 02). Nevertheless, Hauskeller and McNease (2017) contend that transcendence could become the end of the spiritual journey as people intend to believe that it is science and technology which help humans to transcend their current limitations.…”

Treatise on the influence of theism, transhumanism, and posthumanism on nursing and rehabilitation healthcare practice

Reservations concerning the ontologies of theism, transhumanism and posthumanism compel an explicatory discourse on their influences on Nursing and rehabilitation healthcare. Key journals in Nursing and health sciences have recently devoted themed issues on intelligent machine technologies such as humanoid healthcare robots and other highly technological healthcare devices and practice initiatives. While the technological advance witnessed has been a cause for celebration, questions still remain that are focused on the epistemological concerns. The purpose of this article is to discuss theistic ontologies such as the Judeo-Christian, Shinto-Buddhist and Islamic religious belief systems on transhumanism and posthumanism in the assimilation of symbiotic technological beings in Nursing and rehabilitation healthcare practice. In view of the approaching technological singularity dominating arguments regarding the future of human beings, a treatise on Nursing and rehabilitation health care is positioned well within the realms of human care. Theism, transhumanism and posthumanism are directing discussions regarding human beings and healthcare processes. It is imperative that the beneficial effects of these discussions be acknowledged within the highly technological world of Nursing and rehabilitative healthcare.

“…In clinical applications, human gait was already getting utilized for the studies related to the health of a person, and nearly 25 key patterns from gait were detected using different techniques like [87,88]; neodymium magnets [89]; NFC or RFID chips [90,91]; smart piercings [92,93]; smart tattoos [93] Continuous; multimodal; transparent [94] Data not available image processing, floor sensors, and sensors placed on the body [118]. Recently, smartphones and wearable devices have also started utilizing it for authentication purposes [128].…”

“…Insertable biometrics [83][84][85] (Table 3) including implantable medical devices (IMDs) [86] and emerging technologies such as Bespoke devices [87,88], neodymium magnets [89], NFC or RFID chips [90,91], smart piercings [92,93], and smart tattoos [93] are the newer addition to biometrics that potentially can be used to provide increased usability over the existing solutions [94]. Researches are exploring the further possibilities of insertable biometrics as go-to solution for improving digital security and usability in smartphones.…”

Smartphones are the most popular and widespread personal devices. Apart from their conventional use, that is, calling and texting, they have also been used to perform multiple security sensitive activities, such as online banking and shopping, social networking, taking pictures, and e-mailing. On a positive side, smartphones have improved the quality of life by providing multiple services that users desire, for example, anytime-anywhere computing. However, on the other side, they also pose security and privacy threats to the users' stored data. User authentication is the first line of defense to prevent unauthorized access to the smartphone. Several authentication schemes have been proposed over the years; however, their presentation might be perplexing to the new researchers to this domain, under the shade of several buzzwords, for example, active, continuous, implicit, static, and transparent, being introduced in academic papers without comprehensive description. Moreover, most of the reported authentication solutions were evaluated mainly in terms of accuracy, overlooking a very important aspect-the usability. is paper surveys various types and ways of authentication, designed and developed primarily to secure the access to smartphones and attempts to clarify correlated buzzwords, with the motivation to assist new researchers in understanding the gist behind those concepts. We also present the assessment of existing user authentication schemes exhibiting their security and usability issues.
