Researchers report a person who has been paralyzed for more than a decade has become the first person to be able to 'feel' physical sensations through a prosthetic hand directly connected to his brain.
Researchers are one step closer to developing a prosthetic arm that can recreate a sense of touch through a direct brain interface.
"Neurograins" brain-computer interfaces independently record electrical impulses and send signals wirelessly to a central hub that coordinates and processes the signals.
New research allows those with robotic controlled prosthetic legs to walk almost as fast as an able bodied person.
Implanting neuroprosthetics into the posterior parietal cortex allows a paralyzed man to control a robotic arm through thought, a new study reports.
Findings about how the speech center is organized and how fluid speech occurs could lead to the development of neuroprosthetics capable of translating thoughts into speech, researchers report.
New brain-machine interfaces that exploit the plasticity of the brain may allow people to control prosthetic devices in a natural...
Spinal cord stimulation restores the sense of feeling of limbs lost to amputation.
Using a brain machine interface, monkeys learn to control the movement of two virtual arms, a new study reports.
A new bionic fingertip that is surgically connected to nerves in the upper arm allows amputees to feel texture, a new study reports.
Building a robotic bat wing, researchers have uncovered flight secrets of real bats: the function of ligaments, the elasticity of skin, the structural support of musculature, skeletal flexibility, upstroke and downstroke.
Researchers have developed new software that allows powered prosthetics to automatically tune themselves, making the limbs more functionally useful.
