Prosthetics

A robotic finger can feel like a part of our hand after just a short time using it, suggesting that our brains can "own" extra body parts.

After creating a bionic hand for himself, Peruvian engineer Enzo Romero launched a company to sell the low-cost prosthetics to others.

U.K. researchers have developed a 3D-printed prosthetic eye that’s more realistic and easier to produce than traditional ones.

MIT has established a new bionics research center to help people everywhere overcome the challenges of disabilities.

A new bionic arm is so intuitive, wearers think and behave like people without amputations while using it to perform everyday tasks.

MIT and Brown researchers have developed a technique using implanted magnetic beads that they hope will lead to better control of prosthetic limbs.

MIT researchers have created a soft, inflatable prosthetic hand that provides advanced abilities at a fraction of the cost and weight.

Bionic arms used to cost $80,000. Now, a young engineer has lowered the cost by over 90%.

Indian startup Makers Hive has developed a bionic arm that’s not only 90% cheaper than most, but also more functional.

To show how human augmentation can affect the brain, participants in a new study underwent fMRIs after learning to use a prosthetic called the "Third Thumb."
