Cybernetics

Cybernetics are advanced pieces of technology, built to replace missing parts of a pony or augment the pony in question. Cybernetics were not wide spread before the war, instead they were used to replace the limbs of soldiers on the battlefield.

Stable 101 was given technology, far in excess of what it needed. Numerous residents were cybernetic in some form, Doc Slaughter in particular was almost entirely cybernetic. Red Eye used the cybernetic technology of Stable 101 and Doc Slaughter's expertise, to create a Cyberdragon.

Red Eye's dog, Winter is also a cyborg and the only dog seen in the series as a cyberdog.

The construction is fairly complex for a prosthetic, with electronic components that allow it a full range of movement.
