Ever wonder why flat earthers, birthers, climate change and Holocaust deniers stick to their beliefs in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary? New findings from researchers at UC... Read more
Researchers are exploring new approaches to designing prosthetic hands capable of providing “sensory feedback.” Advances toward developing prostheses with a sense of touch are pr... Read more
A prosthetic hand, which provides a sense of touch acute enough to handle an egg, has been completed and is now exploited by the NEBIAS project after 10 years of EU-funded research. The worl... Read more
Advances enable advanced prosthetic control and direct sensory feedback Since 2000, more than 2,000 servicemembers have suffered amputated limbs. DARPA’s breakthrough research with advanced... Read more
“I think it’s very possible that in fact, you will consider this new thing as being part of your body” In a study recently published in IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems... Read more
Studies show, however, that up to 50 percent of hand amputees still do not use their prosthesis regularly due to less than ideal functionality, appearance, and controllability. For an ampute... Read more
