Scientists have enabled a paralysed man to grasp, move and drop objects just by using his thoughts. Researchers in San Francisco developed a robot arm that receives signals from the brain to a ...

A robot hand extends toward a small cube, guided by signals from electrodes implanted in the sensory cortex of partially paralyzed patient Nathan Copeland's brain. Copeland is the first human to ...

A paralyzed man bound to a wheelchair is now able to fetch water and food for himself with the help of an AI assisted sensor fitted on the surface of his brain, that remembers how to command his ...

Researchers at UC San Francisco have enabled a man who is paralyzed to control a robotic arm that receives signals from his brain via a computer. He was able to grasp, move and drop objects just by ...

Using the motor cortex to control a robotic arm often results in jerky movements because the subject has to think about each individual action - move arm down, open hand, close hand, bring hand up.

A robotic hand has been successfully connected to an amputee, allowing him to feel sensations in the artificial limb and control it with his thoughts, a group of European scientists said Wednesday.

Touch feedback allowed a man with electrodes implanted into his brain to command a robotic arm and complete tasks quickly ...

Giving a high-five. Rubbing his girlfriend's hand. Such ordinary acts — but a milestone for a paralyzed man. True, a robotic arm parked next to his wheelchair did the touching, painstakingly ...

Man Paralyzed From Neck Down Drinks Beer With Robotic Arm Erik Sorto, 34, hasn't been able to move his arms or legs in a decade, but he was able to pick up a beer and drink it thanks to a robotic arm.

Scientists at Caltech reported Thursday that they had developed an implantable chip that gave a tetraplegic man the power to drink beer with a robot arm. This is just the beginning.
