The world is edging closer to creating fully functional prosthetic limbs, with the first clinical bionic attachment connected directly to the nervous and skeletal systems, plus artificial intelligence ...

A man with an amputated arm has been given a bionic hand in a surgical breakthrough in Sweden. A study published in Science Translational Medicine on July 12 shows how the patient can now control the ...

Scientists have developed a robotic prosthetic hand that offers precision fingertip control. The ultra-light system offers shape-adaptive gripping through simple motion commands. Using an innovative ...

The Mia Hand prosthetic, fused with bone and connected to the nervous system, has given its owner a new lease on life and much less phantom pain. Reading time 2 minutes Scientists appear to have ...

LONDON (Reuters) - Dennis Aabo Sorensen lost his left hand when a firework rocket he was holding exploded during New Year's Eve celebrations 10 years ago, and he never expected to feel anything with ...

A bionic hand has been given an AI "mind of its own" to make life easier for amputees. American scientists used state of the art artificial intelligence to "fine-tune" the robotic prosthesis and ...

Researchers have found that the nerve cells (neurons) controlling sensation and movement of the hands show injury-induced changes for years after hand amputation, reattachment or transplant. The small ...

To think about an artificial limb is to think about a person. It’s an object of touch and motion made to be used, one that attaches to the body and interacts with its user’s world. Historical ...
