What if, instead of using X-rays or ultrasound, we could use touch to image the insides of human bodies and electronic devices? In a study publishing in the journal Cell Reports Physical Science on ...
Researchers from Wuyi University in China have developed a smart bionic finger capable of subsurface tactile tomography. While previous artificial sensors could only recognize external features, the ...
As Eric Jones fought off cancer a few years ago, his weakened immune system left him vulnerable to strep pneumonia and sepsis, which developed into the blood-clotting disorder known as Disseminated ...
A group of researchers from Wiyu University in China debuted a new device that centers on multiple touches or pokes on different surfaces to create a 3D render of its surface and subsurface. This is ...
The bionic finger actually looks more like a tattoo gun than a finger. It works by repeatedly jabbing a surface with a small needle-like tip as it methodically scans back and forth along the area. The ...
Scottish scientists have created the world's first powered bionic fingers for partial-hand amputees. Called ProDigits, the prosthesis has a silicone skin and movable thumb that allows amputees the ...
The human fingertip is an exquisitely sensitive instrument for perceiving objects in our environment via the sense of touch. A team of Chinese scientists has mimicked the underlying perceptual ...
Surgical and engineering innovations enable unprecedented control over every finger of a bionic hand
For the first time, a person with an arm amputation can manipulate each finger of a bionic hand as if it was his own. Thanks to revolutionary surgical and engineering advancements that seamlessly ...
