Thanks to a neural interface, people can move this bionic limb naturally—just by thinking about it. When someone loses part of a leg, a prosthetic can make it easier to get around. But most ...

The bionic hand combines body-powered control with the functionality of a myoelectric prosthetic, providing five-finger motion, variable grips and wrist positions without the need for electronics.

The bionic hand is said to combine the practicality of body-powered control with the functionality of a myoelectric prosthetic - including five-finger motion, variable grips and wrist positions.

While a number of groups are developing thought-controlled prosthetic hands, most of the devices require electrodes or other relatively fiddly electronics to be implanted in the amputee's body.
