TOP FUTURE USEFUL TECHS (MIND CONTROLLED PROSTHETIC ARM)
MIND CONTROLLED PROSTHETIC (ARTIFICIAL) ARM Hey, guys we are back with the 7th most useful future tech update this one is dedicated to the medical science progress. IN BRIEF The "LUKE" prosthetic arm, which allows users to control it with their minds, has also gained the ability to feel. Using a system developed by a team at the University of Utah, users can regain over 100 sensations in the arm. ONCE MORE WITH FEELING Researchers from the University of Utah have developed a mind-controlled robotic hand that can simulate 100 unique touch sensations in the user’s brain. The developers used a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) funded arm affectionately referred to as the LUKE, so named after Luke Skywalker’s prosthetic arm from the Star Wars films. The updates developed by the Utah group involve implanting a device into the patient’s residual nerves, along with electrodes implanted in muscles to create a loop of informatio
