Bionics, or also Augmetics, are Imperial mechanical or technological substitutes for biological limbs or organs. Generally the replacement is stronger, more durable or effective than the original, or gives its user completely new abilities.
仿生部件,也称为人体增强,是帝国机械或技术对生物肢体或器官的替代品。一般来说,替代品比原版更强、更耐用或更有效,或者为使用者提供全新的能力。
The use of bionics is widespread in the Imperium. However, bionics are expensive and mostly limited to valuable servants of the Imperium, such as veteran warriors or skilled adepts, high-ranking Imperial officials and Inquisitors, as well as Planetary Governors who possess the required wealth.
仿生部件在帝国中广泛使用。然而,仿生部件很昂贵,而且大多仅限于帝国有价值的仆从,如经验丰富的战士或熟练的行家、高级帝国官员和审判官,以及拥有所需财富的行星总督。

Augmetic arm 强化手臂
An individual may have artificial limbs and organs to replace diseased or damaged parts, or simply to improve their abilities. Bionics include partial and full replacements of body parts, brain implants, cybernetic weaponry and other devices. Although bionic parts are mechanical, many of them do use the user's bloodstream, nerve endings, etc., so damage to one may be as debilitating as an injury to the original part, although in general the bionics are much more durable than their organic counterparts.
一个人可能有假肢和器官来替换患病或受损的部位,或者只是为了提高他们的能力。仿生植入物包括部分和全部替换身体部位、大脑植入物、智控武器和其他设备。尽管仿生部件是机械的,但它们中的许多确实使用了用户的血液、神经末梢等,因此对一个人的伤害可能和对原始部件的伤害一样令人虚弱,尽管总的来说,仿生部件比有机部件更耐用。

Augmetic eye 强化眼
There is no standard level of bionic technology throughout the Imperium: many bionics are clumsy and inefficient replacements, while the best can replicate or even improve upon the performance of the original limb or organ. Inquisition bionics are among the more sophisticated and can reverse what would otherwise be fatal or crippling injuries.
整个帝国没有仿生技术的标准水平:许多仿生技术都是笨拙而低效的替代品,而最好的仿生技术可以复制甚至改善原始肢体或器官的性能。审判庭仿生部件是其中较为复杂的,可以扭转致命或致残的伤害。

Augmetic heart 强化心脏
Personnel in practically all branches of the Imperium use bionics in some capacity. In most Imperial Guard Regiments, only officers will have access to bionic equipment. On the other hand, there are a few regiments where virtually every soldier is bionically enhanced. Also, the Iron Hands Space Marine Chapter are infamous for making extensive use of them, almost to the point of removing all flesh in favour of machinery. Even some particularly wealthy members of the Imperial citizenry can afford, and have been known to use, bionics.
帝国几乎所有部门的人员都以某种身份使用仿生部件。在大多数帝国卫队中,只有军官才能使用仿生部件。另一方面,有几个团几乎每个士兵都进行了仿生增强。此外,钢铁之手星际战士因广泛使用它们而声名狼藉,几乎到了为了机械而去除所有肉体的地步。即使是一些特别富有的帝国公民也能负担得起,并且众所周知,他们使用仿生部件。

Augmetic leg 强化腿
Bionic organs 仿生器官
For the wealthy or privileged, bionics can replace diseased or aged organs and therefore offer an increased life span. Practically any organ can be replaced, even parts of the brain. The simplest are mere replacements, while the more advanced increase the functionality and performance of the organ beyond its previous capacity.
对于富人或特权阶层来说,仿生部件可以替代患病或衰老的器官,从而延长寿命。实际上,任何器官都可以被替换,甚至是大脑的一部分。最简单的只是替代品,而更先进的则可以提高器官的功能和性能,使其超出以前的能力。
Bionic senses 仿生感官
Such is the level of technology in certain parts of the Imperium that bionic senses can replace eyes, ears, noses, and even touch and taste. More advanced bionic senses can even produce effects of synaesthesia.
这就是帝国某些地区的技术水平,仿生感官可以取代眼睛、耳朵、鼻子,甚至触觉和味觉。更先进的仿生感官甚至可以产生通感效果。
Bionic eyes can increase a subject's visual spectrum, allowing the ability to see heat, energies, etc., as well as incorporating targeters and resistance to the effects of blinding flashes. The addition of digi-weapons into bionic eyes is also not unknown for high-ranking individuals.
仿生眼可以增加使用者的视觉光谱,使其能够看到热量、能量等,并包括目标和对致盲闪光效果的抵抗力。对于高级人士来说,将数字武器添加到仿生眼中也不是什么新鲜事。
Bionic hearing can improve normal hearing to the point where the user can hear living creatures breathing, hearts beating, etc.
仿生听觉可以改善正常听力,使用者可以听到生物的呼吸、心跳等。
Bionic implants 仿生植入物
Implants come in all shapes and sizes, from memory upgrades for the brain to implant weapons. Some of the more esoteric are listed below. The Tech-priests of the Adeptus Mechanicus are infamous for making use of extensive bionic implants, and some of the more exotic ones they create are used solely by them. This list is by no means exhaustive.
植入物有各种形状和大小,从大脑的记忆升级到植入武器。下面列出了一些更深奥的。机械神教的技术神甫因使用广泛的仿生植入物而声名狼藉,他们创造的一些更奇特的植入物仅供他们使用。这份清单绝不是详尽无遗的。
Psi-booster 灵能增强器
A psi-booster increases activity in the part of the brain responsible for controlling psychic ability. A person with one of these is usually a proficient psyker and has greater control over his powers compared to someone of the same ability without a psi-booster.
灵能增强器增加了大脑中负责控制心灵能力的部分的活动。拥有其中之一的人通常是一名熟练的灵能者,与没有灵能增强器的具有相同能力的人相比,他对自己的力量有更大的控制力。
Mind Impulse Unit 思维驱动单元
A Mind Impulse Unit (MIU) is a neural link between a sentient brain and a piece of equipment, allowing an individual to control and monitor a system by thought alone. MIUs are most commonly used in Dreadnought armour and the gigantic Titans of the Adeptus Mechanicus but are rarely seen elsewhere. Other uses include hands-free equipment operation, such as for shoulder- or wrist-mounted gear (including weapons). In some rare cases the weapon is carried normally; the MIU allows the user a greater intimacy with their weapon's internal workings, such as ammunition count or barrel temperature. This is sometimes found amongst the Skitarii tech guard of the Adeptus Mechanicus. Wireless MIUs also exist, although they are exceptionally rare and are used to control mechanical familiars or certain types of servitor. This type of MIU is most common when the user cannot perform a common task themselves (perhaps being too large to fit somewhere) or when they prefer to stay out of harm's way.
思维驱动单元(MIU)是一种连接有知觉的大脑和设备的神经连接,使个人能够仅通过思维来控制和监测系统。MIU最常用于无畏装甲和机械神教的巨型泰坦,但在其它地方很少见到。其他用途包括非手持设备操作,例如用于肩上或手腕上的装备(包括武器)。在极少数情况下,武器会正常携带;MIU使使用者能够更深入地了解武器的内部运作,如弹药数量或枪管温度。这有时会在机械神教的护教军科技卫队中发现。无线MIU也存在,尽管它们非常罕见,用于控制机械守卫或某些类型的机仆。当使用者无法自己执行常见任务(可能太大而无法放置在某个地方)或他们更喜欢远离伤害时,这种MIU最为常见。
Implant weaponry 植入武器
An implant weapon is one that has been grafted onto an existing limb, replacing a hand or occasionally the entire arm, and is controlled by a simpler MIU than needed for a more sophisticated device. The obvious benefit of finer weapon control is substantially offset by loss of hand or arm functionality outside of combat. This bionic is thus not especially practical, and is usually intended to intimidate, as the surgery used to graft them onto the user is often quite crude, leaving gruesome suture scars frightening above and beyond the "body horror" qualities of the implant itself. Another reason for implantation of bionic weapons is the user not being expected to need his arm for other tasks; this approach is most often seen in the cases of pit slave gladiators or certain types of battlefield servitor.
植入武器是一种移植到现有肢体上的武器,可以取代一只手,有时甚至是整个手臂,并且由比更复杂的设备所需的更简单的MIU控制。更精细的武器控制的明显优点被战斗外手或手臂功能的丧失而大大抵消了。因此,这种仿生装置并不特别实用,通常是为了恐吓,因为将它们移植到使用者身上的手术通常非常粗糙,留下可怕的缝合疤痕,超出了植入物本身的“身体恐怖”特性。植入仿生武器的另一个原因是,使用者不需要他的手臂来执行其他任务;这种方法最常见于深坑奴隶角斗士或某些类型的战场机仆的情况。
Mechadendrites 机械触须
Mechadendrites are mechanical tendrils used by the Adeptus Mechanicus to aid them in construction, maintenance, and research. These bionics contain small motors and actuators within their armoured shells and wave about the Techpriest almost with a life of their own.
机械触须是机械神教用来帮助他们进行建造、维护和研究的机械卷须。这些仿生部件在其装甲外壳内包含小型电机和执行机构,像有自己的生命一样在技术神甫周围摆动。
Skinplants 植皮
Using crystal technology made possible this sophisticated tattoo via creating a functioning device between layers of skin. It is quite useful, because with it every citizen with sufficient money can have symbols on their skin that light up and flash. Skinplants could be either light-sensitive, permanent fixtures, or controllable. The most common skinplants is a wristwatch that can be activated with light touch – so a digital display activated beneath the skin. Some people even get skinplants on whole limbs or even their entire body. The emitted light is enough to see in darkness for nearly 10cm, so skinplants on arms became known as ‘thief’s light’, providing sufficient light to operate objects, pick locks, etc.
使用晶体技术,通过在皮肤层之间创建一个功能装置,使这种复杂的纹身成为可能。它非常有用,因为有了它,每个有足够钱的公民都可以在他们的皮肤上移植发光和闪烁的符号。植皮可以是光敏的、永久性的固定装置,也可以是可控的。最常见的植皮是可以通过轻触激活的手表,因此可以在皮肤下激活数字显示器。有些人甚至全身甚至四肢都植满了皮肤。发出的光足以在黑暗中看到近10厘米,因此手臂上的植皮被称为“盗贼之光”,为操作物体、撬锁等提供了足够的光线。
Electoos 源力回路
Similar to skinplants, Electoos also utilise crystal technology, but are much more complex and elaborate. Beneath the skin of recipient is placed an inert layer of conductive material. On this film the crystal stacks are built up and waste material is dissolved out. The electoos could then be attached to this and programmed to function as any control or monitoring device. The electoos could be used for carrying secret information, personal information, data banks and so on. Further, some electoos can contain reservoirs of chemicals, such as antivenom, which can trigger automatically when necessary.
与植皮类似,源力回路也利用了晶体技术,但要复杂得多,也要精细得多。在受体皮肤下放置一层惰性导电材料。在这张薄皮上,晶体堆叠起来,废料被溶解掉。然后,可以将电极连接到该设备上,并编程为任何控制或监测设备。源力回路可用于携带秘密信息、个人信息、数据库等。此外,一些源力回路可能含有化学物质,如抗蛇毒血清,必要时可以自动触发。
One sort of electoo is metallic strips bonded subdermally to enable tech-priests to channel limited amounts of energy; an extreme example are the renowned electro-priests, who turn themselves into crackling fonts of electricity in battle. Electoos enable the user to directly absorb electricity from equipment or power sources and then expel it, with sometimes devastating results.
一种电子装置是皮下粘合的金属条,使技术神甫能够输送有限的能量;一个极端的例子是著名的流电祭司(电僧),他们在战斗中把自己变成了噼啪作响的电流。源力回路使使用者能够直接从设备或电源吸收电力,然后将其排出,有时会造成毁灭性的后果。
Electrografts are another special form of electoo inserted directly into the recipient’s cerebellum. This is implemented by cutting away part of the skull and creating the electoo directly on the brain tissue and covering the cut cranium with synthetic material. Electrografts could alter the creature’s memory, knowledge, and personality. It is an easy and quick way to learn new languages, operate machinery, etc. Unfortunately, this could also cause problems with memory, personality disorders, and occasionally total mental breakdowns. After insertion an electrograph could be reprogrammed almost indefinitely, although too frequent reprogramming increases the degenerative process.
源力植入物是直接插入受体小脑的另一种特殊形式的源力回路。这是通过切除颅骨的一部分,直接在脑组织上产生电,并用合成材料覆盖切开的颅骨来实现的。源力植入物可以改变生物的记忆、知识和个性。这是一种学习新语言、操作机器等的简单快捷的方法。不幸的是,这也可能导致记忆问题、人格障碍,偶尔还会导致彻底精神崩溃。插入后,源力记录几乎可以无限期地重新编程,尽管过于频繁的重新编程会增加退化过程。
Rite of Pure Thought 纯净思维仪式
The Rite is considered an extreme measure even among some Tech-priests. The creative, emotional, illogical right hemisphere of the brain is replaced with a cogitator linked directly to the logical left hemisphere. This frees the recipient of any irrationality and illogic.
仪式即使在一些技术神甫中也被认为是一种极端的措施。创造性的、情绪化的、不合逻辑的大脑右半球被直接与逻辑左半球相连的沉思者所取代。这使接受者摆脱了任何非理性和不合逻辑的行为。
Toxiphage 噬毒体
An implant used to neutralise toxins and drugs administered to or by the recipient, targeting anything stronger than caffeine. Used in the treatment of addicts.
一种植入物,用于中和给接受者或由接受者服用的毒素和药物,靶向任何比咖啡因更强的东西。用于治疗成瘾者。
