The advent of internet of things (IoT) and cloud computing coupled with several breakthroughs in the field of artificial intelligence have made ambient intelligence, which incorporates pervasive computing, human-computer interaction, artificial intelligence, and IoT, possible. Whose objective is to tune the environment to understand human needs and seamless integration of technology with life? Which is the bedrock for human technology integration where artificial systems and miniaturized nanotechnology devices are embodied or implanted in human body which can either function as replacement for human body parts or the extension of human capabilities? This chapter will investigate the trends and advancement in human-computer integration. How can human augmentation technologies be used to replicate, supplement, and exceed human abilities? Also the chapter verifies the impact of human technology augmentation on Industry 5.0 and the challenges that contend with human technology integration.
