        Moonshot Goal 1 R&D Project

        Creating A Society Whose Citizens’ Health is Monitored by Remote Control of Intracellular Cybernetic Avatars

        This project aims to develop intracellular Cybernetic Avatars (CAs) that extend the body's own immune capabilities. By remotely controlling multiple intracellular Cybernetic Avatars, doctors, and specialists will be able to patrol the body, inspect the malignant state of disease-causing cells, remove them if necessary, and keep the body in good condition at all times. By 2050 we aim to realize a safe and secure daily life and an increase in healthy life expectancy watched over by intracellular Cybernetic Avatars.

        Milestones

        By 2030

        Improving our quality of life, and extending healthy expectancy watched over by experts.

        People who need to know the condition of their body can receive appropriate support from doctors and other specialists. This technology should allow doctors to monitor people’s health and provide treatment more quickly and effectivity than current methods.

        By 2025

        Creating an information distribution society where skills and experiences can be shared via CAs.

        Using intracellular CA in a simulated in vivo environment, we will remotely control processes that identify the malignant cells or pathogens, and if necessary, remove them.
        It will then be possible to keep the body in good condition anytime and anywhere. The Intracellular CA’s ability to enhance the innate immune system will be tested simulated in vivo conditions to identify possible adverse reactions.
