Duration: 18 min 34 s
Description: Il fisiatra e ingegnere Todd Kuiken ha realizzato un braccio protesico collegato al sistema nervoso -- maggior movimento e miglior controllo, e persino trasmissione di percezioni tattili. Una sua paziente, Amanda Kitts, partecipa alla presentazione con la sua protesi robotizzata della prossima generazione.

Il fisiatra e ingegnere Todd Kuiken ha realizzato un braccio protesico collegato al sistema nervoso -- maggior movimento e miglior controllo, e persino trasmissione di percezioni tattili. Una sua paziente, Amanda Kitts, partecipa alla presentazione con la sua protesi robotizzata della prossima generazione.

Advances in bionics have made it possible for prosthetic arms to respond to natural muscle signals, allowing intuitive movement and even the sense of touch. In one striking example, a patient was able to feel his missing hand through his chest after targeted muscle reinnervation surgery. These innovations mean people with amputations can control their robotic limbs just by thinking, regaining both function and emotional connection. The technology continues to evolve, aiming for lighter designs and richer sensory feedback.
