Wristband enables wearers to control a robotic hand with their own movements

Robohub

The next time you're scrolling your phone, take a moment to appreciate the feat: The seemingly mundane act is possible thanks to the coordination of 34 muscles, 27 joints, and over 100 tendons and ligaments in your hand. Indeed, our hands are the most nimble parts of our bodies. Mimicking their many nuanced gestures has been a longstanding challenge in robotics and virtual reality. Now, MIT engineers have designed an ultrasound wristband that precisely tracks a wearer's hand movements in real-time. The wristband produces ultrasound images of the wrist's muscles, tendons, and ligaments as the hand moves, and is paired with an artificial intelligence algorithm that continuously translates the images into the corresponding positions of the five fingers and palm.
