Exploring the Potential of Fuzzy Sets in Cyborg Enhancement: A Comprehensive Review

In an era marked by the rapid advancement of information technology, individuals now have the ability to enhance their organic bodies with mechanical and computational devices, revolutionizing their capabilities in everyday activities. However, the seamless integration of biosignals with mechanical counterparts continues to pose significant challenges. To address this, fuzzy logic (FL) emerges as a potential key to these challenges, offering a promising solution for handling the uncertainties and ambiguity inherent in biosignals. It thereby facilitates improved cyborg intelligence in an array of applications, including but not limited to wireless body area networks, brain–computer interfaces, prosthetics, and exoskeletons. Although previous works have highlighted the enhancement of cyborg intelligence using fuzzy sets, all of them only dived single aspects of the cyborg intelligence enhancement applications, leading to a lack of comprehensive understanding. Therefore, we provide a holistic overview of the state-of-the-art applications of FL in cyborg enhancement technology, encompassing its benefits, challenges, and potential directions for future research.
