Using Kresling origami, researchers made a robotic arm able to mimic the flexibility and motion of an octopus limb. Now, researchers have combined observations of octopuses with the ancient practice ...

Scientists have developed a third ‘robotic arm’ that can be controlled using the diaphragm. The research helps pave the way for a future where humans could use augmented robotic limbs to perform tasks ...

Researchers at the University of California, San Francisco, have enabled a paralysed man to regularly control a robotic arm using signals from his brain. He was able to grasp, move, and release ...

He was able to grasp, move, and release objects simply by imagining himself performing the actions. The device, known as a brain-computer interface (BCI), functioned successfully for a record seven ...

Researchers at the University of California, San Francisco, have enabled a paralysed man to regularly control a robotic arm using signals from his brain, transmitted via a computer. He was able to ...

We’ve all been there: Maybe you’re hauling your groceries to the front door that you need to unlock, or you’re carrying an order of coffee for a car full of friends, or you’re trying to juggle cooking ...

A WOMAN who is paralysed from the neck down has been able to work a robotic arm using her thoughts alone, with a degree of agility closer than ever to a normal human limb. Jan Scheuermann (52) was ...
