MindControlled Limbs and HomeMade Skin

The video discusses rapid advancements in medical prosthetics, focusing on the Modular Prosthetic Limb (MPL) developed by Johns Hopkins. This robotic arm can be controlled by the mind through neural implants or targeted muscle reinnervation. Recent studies have enabled control of individual robotic fingers, enhancing functionality. Additionally, the development of synthetic skin using common materials like aluminum foil and sponges offers a cost-effective solution for tactile feedback in prosthetics.
