Technical Notes: Hugyen-Kosaka Upgrade Process
“The Hugyen-Kosaka Process” is the name given to a disastrous series of experiments by early cybernetic pioneers. Nowadays the process is slightly more viable, but still considered a horrific ordeal.
The procedure is also known as FCC, or Full Cybernetic Conversion, something to which only the insane or desperate would submit. The process replaces the patient’s entire body, and the brain is transferred to an amniotic capsule. This combined interface and life-support system is then fitted into a cybernetic body, a complete mechanical android body.
The recovery is notoriously long and arduous, the patient’s normal life functions are gone, they can no longer feel by touch, and the senses that are restored are never the same. Many patients never gained control of their bodies. Of those who did, many were driven mad by sensory deprivation.
Today the procedure is all but banned, yet dangerous psychopaths with enough money and the right contacts sometimes manage to get themselves “upgraded” entirely into hardware. These full-conversion cyborgs are inevitably bad news for all concerned, as they quickly descend into madness.
