Advanced electronic sensors and circuitry combined with computer modeling and simulation are two of the leading technologies driving developments in robotic control technology for bringing specialized ...

Prosthetic hands have long struggled to replicate the dexterity and functionality of natural hands, often limiting users to a single grasp function at a time. This limitation has made everyday tasks, ...

The innovative interface system is designed to seamlessly connect a patient’s nervous system and their upper limb prothesis to restore naturalistic hand and arm function. “For decades, researchers and ...

Upper-limb amputees often struggle with everyday tasks due to their limited dexterity. The existing prosthetic hands often lack the fine motor skills and natural movement required for truly ...
