Researchers at the University of Chicago are creating groundbreaking prosthetics that give amputees a sense of touch. By combining robotic limbs with brain stimulation, users can control their prosthetics and experience real sensations.

 

Using brain-computer interfaces, tiny electrodes implanted in the brain let users feel touch, pressure, and even textures, making movements and tasks more natural.

 

Advances in electrode tech now enable users to sense shapes, textures, and movements, offering a life-changing improvement in everyday experiences.
