As a Biomedical Electronics Engineer I am extremely interested in the field of prosthesis, in particular bionics using electromyography (EMG). If the idea of having an extra limb interests you, look no further! We could be very close to achieving this…
I came across a recent study which really interested me: a collaboration of researchers from Imperial College London and the University of Freiburg came across a method allowing the addition of an extra limb, being made possible via the utilisation of unused bandwidth along neuronal pathways. This technology could be particularly useful in various engineering applications from surgery to assisting space missions.we
Imagine the idea of Dr Octopus from Spiderman becoming a reality.
