As AI powered prosthetic arms become more advanced, a surprising detail could determine whether they truly feel like part of the body: how fast they move.

A virtual forearm can bend in a blink. It can also take its time, easing toward a target as if it is thinking about the move.

Your brain might be lying to you about your new robotic leg. New research shows that users often think they're walking much better—or worse—than they actually are.

The way we understand the movement of our own bodies plays an important role when learning physical skills, from sports to ...

When AI-powered prosthetic arms that move autonomously become widespread, understanding how people feel about them and accept them will be crucial. In a study appearing in Scientific Reports, ...

As artificial intelligence advances, future prosthetic arms may be able to move on their own to assist users with daily tasks. But for these devices to be truly helpful, people must feel comfortable ...

A robotic arm that moves too quickly can feel creepy. One that moves too slowly feels awkward and unhelpful. In a VR study, researchers found that AI-powered prosthetic arms were best accepted when ...

When AI powered prosthetic arms that move autonomously become widespread, understanding how people feel about them and accept them will be crucial. In ...

The way we understand the movement of our own bodies plays an important role when learning physical skills, from sports to dancing. But a new study finds this phenomenon works very differently for ...

New research shows that autonomous robotic limbs must move at human-like speeds to be accepted by the brain as part of the body.

Robots are quietly entering operating rooms across the world. More than 10 million robot-assisted procedures have already ...

Summary When AI powered prosthetic arms that move autonomously become widespread, understanding how people feel about them and accept them will be crucial. In this study, we used virtual reality to ...
