In the picture an individual with a limb deficiency wears the system during familiarization. The researchers designed a soft prosthetic hand with two degrees of actuation, enabling it to perform ...

Most robots rely on rigid, bulky parts that limit their adaptability, strength, and safety in real-world environments. Researchers developed soft, battery-powered artificial muscles inspired by human ...

Matt Carney was good at building robots — he just didn’t want to. While earning his PhD at MIT, he’d spent years studying mechanical engineering and biomechatronics in service of developing bionic ...

Phantom Neuro is developing a muscle-machine interface that allows individuals – particularly those with limb loss or motor impairments – to intuitively control advanced robotic systems like ...

People with severe paralysis are now using implanted brain chips to move robotic arms using nothing but their thoughts, turning a long promised vision of brain computer interfaces into a visible, ...

Having robotic arms that work like those of actual humans is a dream for many in the robotics industry. Researchers from KIMLAB (Kinetic Intelligence Machine LAB) managed to achieve this to some ...
