Fine finger movements are controlled by the population activity of neurons in the hand area of primary motor cortex. Experiments using microstimulation and single-neuron electrophysiology suggest that ...

Patterns of vibration on the skin of the hand that are part of how we sense the world through touch have been cataloged, for the first time, by researchers. Type an email on your computer. Raise a ...

A prototype 3D-printed myoelectric prosthetic hand developed in Japan successfully passed a test by an upper-arm amputee, performing a series of intricate finger motions with more than 90% accuracy.
