Artificial touch: Brain-controlled bionic hand now senses edges and motion

A complex sense of touch for individuals living with spinal cord injuries is a step closer to reality. A study published in Science, paves the way for complex touch sensations through brain stimulation while using an extracorporeal bionic limb, that is attached to a chair or wheelchair. The paper is titled “Tactile edges and motion via patterned microstimulation of the human somatosensory cortex.”
