Scaling up biohybrid robots has been difficult due to the weak contractile force of lab-grown muscles, the risk of necrosis ...

A paralyzed man was able to control a robotic arm through his thoughts, according to researchers at UC San Francisco. The researchers published their findings in the scientific journal 'Cell' on March ...

This case stand out for its dexterous hand hardware that serves as the vehicle for effectively conducting physical work, ...

The researchers then asked the participant to imagine simple finger, hand, and thumb movements over two weeks while the AI ...

How does a robotic arm or a prosthetic hand learn a complex task like grasping and rotating a ball? Researchers address the classic 'nature versus nurture' question. The research demonstrates that the ...

The system’s hybrid design is a first for robotic hands, which have typically been too rigid or too soft to replicate a human’s touch when handling objects of varying textures and materials.

A specialized 1.8-ton robot will implant 64 electrodes, each with 16 contacts, into the hand-motor areas of patients’ brains. These electrodes will transmit neural activity, allowing users to ...

An curved arrow pointing right. Researchers at Swiss university ETH Zurich created a humanlike robotic hand using new 3D printing technology to create more sophisticated prosthetics. More from ...
