Spared Motor Neurons Enable Control of a Robotic Sixth Finger for Functional Grasping in Tetraplegia
Restoring hand function is a top priority in spinal cord injury (SCI), yet current assistive technologies remain limited in usability and lack intuitive control. We developed a non-invasive neuromechatronic interface that translates spared motor neuron activity from individuals with tetraplegia into the motion of a sup...
