Tech Article 2/11

The "Luke" arm is a new functional robotic arm for amputees. Developed by DEKA, the best part about this arm is that it's controlled by your brain. They attach your nerves to the arm and allow you to perform a variety of motions. The arm can also "read our mind and perform motions depending on what you're trying to do by using infrared to read neural signals inside your brain. The arm is still in development and is currently being tested on war veterans.
