Need a hand? ASU can help. Researchers with various specialties have teamed up this semester to develop a prosthetic hand controlled entirely by brain signals. The project, called "Cortical Control of ...

Prosthetic technology has created substantial improvements, yet due to its limitations in dexterity and functionality, prosthetic users have not fully been able to conduct the complex motions that ...

A Bristol-based roboticist has developed a robotic prosthetic hand using 3D-printed components that costs as little as £650, which is much cheaper than existing technology. Joel Gibbard first came up ...

A team of four Miami University undergraduate students is working to develop an affordable 3D-printed prosthetic hand that costs less than $100 and can be produced in 36 hours, addressing a shortage ...

Researchers have developed a novel training protocol for brain-computer interfaces in a study with rhesus monkeys. The method enables precise control of prosthetic hands using signals from the brain ...

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, ...

In 2005, Keith Vonderhuevel lost his right arm below his elbow in a work-related accident. For about eight years, he wore a hook and various prosthetic arms before he heard about prosthetic studies in ...

A team at the University of Pittsburgh is trying to make prosthetic limbs that work like the one in a Star Wars movie. After Luke Skywalker loses a hand in a lightsaber fight, "They give him this new ...
