The NEBIAS project (NEurocontrolled BIdirectional Artificial upper limb and hand prosthesiS) is a European collaboration to build a highly advanced prosthetic hand capable, among other things, of letting its user actually feel what’s between the fingers. The device has been tested on a Danish amputee who lost his arm in a fireworks accident. He had a special neuronal interface implanted into the remaining arm that lets him control the arm while feeling how hard the objects are the arm is in contact with.
