Neil Harbisson was born with achromatopsia, a rare condition that causes complete color blindness. In 2004, Harbisson and Adam Montandon developed the Eyeborg, a device that translates color into sounds. Harbisson has been claimed to be the first recognized cyborg in the world, as his passport photo now includes his device.
