Bionic hand with neural control and feedback for use in daily life

- Опубликовано: 7 фев 2025
- First clinical implementation of a transradial neuromusculoskeletal prosthesis - a bionic hand connected directly to the user’s nervous and skeletal systems. The functionality of conventional artificial limbs is hindered by discomfort and limited and unreliable control. Neuromusculoskeletal interfaces can overcome these hurdles and provide the means for the everyday use of a sensate prosthesis with reliable neural control fixated into the skeleton.

Bravo! We lay people cannot even begin to imagine what you folks have gone through to develop such devices! Congratulations as we are quite proud of you and the very best of luck!
Fantastic! Science just keeps getting better! Amazing times now and more to come!
This is the by far the best and most natural way. Being hardwired into our own body , Absolutely amazing work
Amazing! While being the most integrated limp prosthesis with two way communication I have seen, I hope this will seem already primitive in a few years.
Wow! Incredible! Thank you for your awesome work, keep going!
This is exactly the way to go.
The long term goal for this technology is to gain more strength and fine motor control.
Then maybe in the future to have a more seamless experience for the skin with advanced materials fused together with a biological one.
A fine motor goal would be eventually something like playing a guitar or piano and writing with a computer keyboard with original like precision.
This would definitely need a more advanced neural connection and integration with more advanced prosthetic technologies.
Also the ability to feel sensory feedback is an important part of fine motor tuning and accuracy.
All this is achievable eventually.
Keep going with your study of science and innovations.
Thank you for this astonishing view into your life and the creative world of medicine.
amazing, if we just can ampify signal directly from the nerves instead of relying on the muscles reaction that would give us a significant better reaction time of the prosthetics, which may also allow us to do more advance yet relatively slow signal processing benefiting from the time we gain from not relying on the muscles.
How can the osseo connection permanently penetrate the skin? Are infections are big problem/risk? Is special care required for the area?
These sorts of implants can have risk of infection, but as long as the area is kept clean and protected it can be reliably healthy. As the implant is not attached to a vital organ, like the heart, mild infections can be treated quickly without immediate risk.
Around 20% of patients will experience deep infection/osteomyelitis in the first 10 years post osseointegration. half of those individuals will need their implant removed.
About 75% of all patients will suffer a low grade soft tissue or superficial infection in the same time period.
A medicina está sempre evoluindo.👏👏
Amazing
I would love to hear if she said it felt like her hand. I would love to hear how the sensations feel to her
wow!
Cyberpunk 2077, theme starts in a background. Jokes aside, amazing work!
