About the Device
To recognise the shape of an object, the team has mounted several sensors on the fingers of their arm prosthesis. Depending on what they detect, they transmit different signals to two groups of motors. One is mounted on the inside and the other on the outside of the forearm. When it vibrates on the inside, the object to be detected is rounded, when it vibrates on the outside, it’s flat.
