Amputee feels texture with a bionic fingertip
Published on Mar 8, 2016
Intraneural stimulation elicits discrimination of textural features by artificial fingertip in intact and amputee humansAn amputee feels rough or smooth textures in real-time — with his phantom hand — using an artificial fingertip connected to nerves in the arm. The advancement will accelerate the development of touch enabled prosthetics.

Bionic fingertip feels textures
Published on Mar 8, 2016
With an artificial fingertip surgically connected to nerves in his upper arm, Dennis Aabo S?rensen was able to feel smoothness and roughness in real-time. The nerves of non-amputees can also be stimulated to feel roughness, without the need of surgery.
