Control your bionic hand with an iPhone
2013-04-15 21:02:34| Extremetech
The human hand is incredibly complex, so designing a bionic replacement is quite a challenge. There are countless movements and grips that a normal hand needs to make, and that variety is what makes replacements so difficult. Now, a company called Touch Bionics has developed a bionic hand with four fingers and a rotatable thumb. Better yet, a simple companion app is available for iOS that allows fast selection of 24 preset grips.

Were all doomed: DARPA develops cheap robot hand that can use tools
2013-04-02 16:12:10| Extremetech
Modern-day robotics has already advanced to the point where we can create robot limbs sophisticated enough to be attached to machines and perform tasks efficiently enough to outpace humans in certain areas. A significant problem with these limbs, though, is that they're just too expensive, and not precise enough to outpace humans across the board. However, DARPA has developed a cheap robotic hand that can almost match human performance in dexterous activities, like changing a tire.
