Limb regeneration in humans is a fascinating area of science that, for the moment, is not naturally possible as it is in some animals, such as certain species of reptiles or amphib ...

Researchers are paving the way for the design of bionic limbs that feel natural to users. They demonstrate the connection ...

robots could rescue them without risking more human lives. However, such sites are full of hazards, like collapsing rubble that could fall on the robot. With detachable limbs, search-and-rescue ...

A biohybrid hand which can move objects and do a scissor gesture has been created. The researchers used thin strings of lab-grown muscle tissue bundled into sushilike rolls to give the fingers enough ...

Researchers at the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (Italian Institute of Technology) in Italy and Imperial College London in the UK are paving the way for the design of bionic limbs that feel natural ...

This course considers normal human movement; pathological conditions resulting from disease, injury, malformations, birth, etc.; and engineering approaches such as prostheses (limb replacements) and ...

The human remains found stuffed in a suitcase floating off Manhattan in the East River consisted of a man’s headless ...

But Valle and his team are hopeful that such advances can be made, and that a truly human-feeling bionic limb is well within the realm of possibility. “Although many challenges remain ...

On one side, a participant can move a robotic arm by simply thinking about movement, and on the other side, sensors on that robotic limb can trigger pulses of electrical activity called ...

A brain-computer interface, surgically placed in a research participant with tetraplegia, paralysis in all four limbs, provided an ... It allows for human connection. "People tend to focus on ...
