Million-dollar bionic man on show - Yahoo! News UK:artificial organs, synthetic blood and robot limbs will go on display at London's Science Museum. Costing almost £640,000, it is cheaper than the Six Million Dollar Man from the cult 1970s TV series, but the 6ft 6in (2m) humanoid shares quite a bit in common with Steve Austin, the original "bionic man". The artificial man was assembled by a team of leading roboticists for a new Channel 4 documentary, How To Build A Bionic Man. It incorporates some of the latest advances in prosthetic technology, as well as an artificial pancreas, kidney, spleen and trachea, and a functional blood circulatory system."
