The emergence of inventive new materials, engineering breakthroughs, and advances in microtechnology has served as the catalyst for innovation in modern prosthetics development. As a result of these advances, modern prostheses are more lightweight, more responsive, and more comfortable than models developed even just a few years ago. Wearers of prostheses have more options than ever before, allowing amputees to participate in life activities never before thought possible.
A number of new technologies are just beginning to become a reality for prosthetic wearers. Neuroelectronics is one of the industry?s newest fields. Scientists studying cognitive control signals report that ?eavesdropping? on neurons in the brain allow them to predict how the body will respond. View the rest of this article
