When AI-powered prosthetic arms that move autonomously become widespread, understanding how people feel about them and accept ...

Your brain might be lying to you about your new robotic leg. New research shows that users often think they're walking much better—or worse—than they actually are.

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 ...

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 ...

As AI powered prosthetic arms become more advanced, a surprising detail could determine whether they truly feel like part of the body: how fast they move.

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 ...

New research shows that autonomous robotic limbs must move at human-like speeds to be accepted by the brain as part of the body.

A robotic arm with a sense of touch has allowed a man who is paralyzed to quickly perform tasks like pouring water from one cup into another. The robotic arm provides tactile feedback directly to the ...

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 ...
