The Science Eye is an intriguing piece of technology. Developed by Science Corp., the bionic eye seeks to restore vision in patients suffering from a variety of vision-based diseases. But, it also ...

Researchers have engineered a bionic arm for patients with upper-limb amputations that allows wearers to think, behave and function like a person without an amputation, according to new findings. The ...

A new study at the University of Sydney has showcased promising results for a new bionic eye. A team of biomedical students at the university developed the device. After three months of studying the ...

Monisha Ravisetti was a science writer at CNET. She covered climate change, space rockets, mathematical puzzles, dinosaur bones, black holes, supernovas, and sometimes, the drama of philosophical ...

The human fingertip is an exquisitely sensitive instrument for perceiving objects in our environment via the sense of touch. A team of Chinese scientists has mimicked the underlying perceptual ...

Phantom limb pain is a common problem for people who undergo amputation, and so is the ability to function even with a regular prosthetic, but a medical advance that sounds like it comes straight out ...

Researchers look to create a bionic eye that can restore people’s sight. Vision loss affects millions of Americans. But University of Oregon researchers are looking to create an electronic solution- a ...

With the first thought-controlled bionic leg pioneered in Chicago, the next steps for smart prosthetics are refining them for widespread use and tackling a huge hurdle: sensory feedback. Nick Statt ...

A team of researchers has, for the first time, fully 3D printed an array of light receptors on a hemispherical surface. This discovery marks a significant step toward creating a 'bionic eye' that ...

A highly dexterous, bio-inspired artificial hand and sensory system that could provide patients with active feeling, is being developed by a European project. Funded by the Future and Emerging ...
