Researchers at Johns Hopkins University have come up with a better prosthetic hand that uses a hybrid design to carefully grip various objects with just the right amount of pressure. The robotic ...

Scientists are using artificial intelligence to help bionic limbs act more like natural ones. NPR's Jon Hamilton reports on an experimental hand that shares control with the user to carry out tricky ...

Scientists from Beijing Institute of Technology have developed a novel method for recognizing hand gestures in prosthetic devices using electromyography (EMG) signals. A recent breakthrough in ...

The electromyographic(EMG) signal is the bioelectrical current generated during muscle contraction. It can be transmitted as an input signal to an intelligent bionic prosthetic hand to control hand ...

Electrical signals from wrist muscles can be used to control prosthetic limbs or gloves for virtual reality, but individual differences in skin, age and body size can make it difficult for some people ...

A group of young creators in Warsaw is pushing the limits of 3-D printing and helping out a middle school classmate at the ...
