For the first time scientists were able to restore real-time sensory feeling in an amputee wearing a robotic hand. Bionic hands my not be at the skull-crushing level where would like them to be, but being able to feel our victim may be a step in the right direction.
Dennis Aabo Sørensen has become the first amputee in a clinical trial to restore touch using a prosthetic hand. The hand is connected to implanted electrodes that are attached to Sørensen’s nerves. During the four week trial he could experience feeling where his left hand use to be – for the first time in nine years.
