While today’s robotics industry has made huge strides in replicating known movements, it still has a hard time when ...

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, ...

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 ...

Robotics firm ABB is collaborating with bionic-hand manufacturer Psyonic on whether data from human manipulation of a robotic ...

A robotic arm that moves too quickly can feel creepy. One that moves too slowly feels awkward and unhelpful. In a VR study, researchers found that AI-powered prosthetic arms were best accepted when ...

In virtual reality, participants embodied an avatar whose left forearm was replaced by an autonomous prosthetic arm that flexed toward a target at different movement speeds. When AI powered prosthetic ...

It is the first magnetically controlled prosthetic hand that allows amputees to reproduce all movements simply by thinking and to control the force applied when grasping fragile objects. No wires, no ...

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 ...

When AI powered prosthetic arms that move autonomously become widespread, understanding how people feel about them and accept them will be crucial. In this study, we used virtual reality to simulate a ...
