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.

Researchers at a Chinese university have built a soft, human-inspired robot that can physically grow and shrink on command, mimicking the way human bones elongate during development. The robot, called ...

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

Most robots rely on rigid, bulky parts that limit their adaptability, strength, and safety in real-world environments. Researchers developed soft, battery-powered artificial muscles inspired by human ...

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.

Robots have come a long way since they were first imagined over 100 years ago, and this new Chinese model continues to push ...

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 ...

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 ...
