Abstract: The Flapping-Wing Micro Air Vehicle, imitating the flight of birds or insects, is a new type of aircraft with broad application value. Since its flying principle is quite different from that ...

Modern bionic hand prostheses nearly match their natural counterparts when it comes to dexterity, degrees of freedom, and capability. And many amputees who tried advanced bionic hands apparently ...

SALT LAKE CITY — University of Utah engineers have given a bionic hand a mind of its own. Post-doctoral researcher Marshall Trout said a large percentage of amputees who get bionic hands — maybe 20% ...

Scientists are using artificial intelligence to help bionic limbs act more like natural ones. NPR's Jon Hamilton reports on an experimental hand that shares control with the user to carry out tricky ...

Abstract: Remora fish exhibit a remarkable ability to hitch-hike on large marine animals for long-distance transportation, serving as a significant source of inspiration for the development and ...

Summary: A new study shows that integrating artificial intelligence with advanced proximity and pressure sensors allows a commercial bionic hand to grasp objects in a natural, intuitive way—reducing ...
