Feed-forward neural networks improve speed and provide more accurate control of brain-controlled prosthetic hands and fingers.
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.
Findings allow for the development of an autonomously updating brain-machine interface, which is able to improve on its own by learning about its subject without additional programming. The system could help develop new robotic prosthetics, which can perform more naturally.
Researchers have developed a new, fully automated prosthetic arm that learns during normal use and adapts to varying conditions.
