From the film Cyborg 2: Cash being repaired.

A Cyborg is a robot with both organic and inorganic components.

In gynoid related fiction and media, a cyborg is typically a robot with both organic components in addition to machinery. More often than not, they are humans who died or were critically injured and fitted with cybernetic components, thus making them a cyborg.

It is a common misconception that cyborgs are another name for a robot, because some older films and TV shows have inaccurately portrayed androids or robots as cyborgs. In actuality, a cyborg is not 100% machine. It is part man, part machine.

Notable examples of Cyborgs

  • Cash Reese from Cyborg 2
  • Eve from Eve of Destruction
  • Samantha from Deadly Friend
  • All of the skin job Cylons from Battlestar Galactica
