France has unveiled the Carmat artificial heart — a breakthrough device that could change the future of transplants. Built with aerospace-grade sensors and biocompatible materials, it mimics the natural rhythm of a human heart and automatically adapts to the body’s needs in real time.
Unlike traditional transplants, this heart doesn’t rely on a human donor. It’s powered by external batteries and offers patients mobility, independence, and a real chance at long-term survival. Clinical trials already show it can sustain patients for months to years, opening the door to a future where waiting lists and donor shortages are no longer barriers to life-saving treatment.
