Bio-Fusion (2023 Initiative P-8 animation)

Bio-Fusion is the process of reprogramming DNA to fuse organic body parts with biomechatronic and/or mechanical parts. It is a central plot element in the 2023 animated documentary Initiative P-8, where Otto Research, Sinmonger Logistics, and Mattel Logistics used it to convert people into "Cyberfolk" after it was outlawed for converting people into vehicles.

History
In North America, Bio-Fusion was originally technology inherited from Professor Hans Götze of Germany and was used as an attempt to revive Derek Götze back from the dead following a tragic car accident. Following the Bio-Fusion ban in Britain in 1984, Bio-Fusion became banned publicly in Canada in 1987. However, despite the ban, Bio-Fusion is still technically continued in Canada, but only with companies that signed up to cooperate with the Canadian government. The Bio-Fusion trend eventually took off in the United States in the early 90s, where people were especially turned into passenger locomotives for Amtrak, but overall Bio-Fusion was done to a lesser extent in America than in Great Britain. The trend continued until 2015 when the documentary on Shed-17 was released. Following this, Bio-Fusion was instead adapted to turn willing Americans into cyborgs and more less trains and other vehicles.

Like in Britain, Bio-Fusion experiments in America and Canada didn't have as much work put into them, but there were other experiments that had careful work put in them. The most notable example of the successful experiments was Alfred, who was Bio-Fused into a generic freelanced bullet train in 1997. Other than that, most of the bio-fused vehicles had various problems, with most of them either becoming too sick to work or dying during their operation or on their first test run as a result. Also, since the cyberfolk are technically people Bio-Fused into robotic animatronics, rather than just those with regular mechanical implants, they were just as flawed. In fact of the cyborgs had merely identical problems, with most of them either becoming too sick to work or dying during their operation or due to the animatronic mechanisms failing.
