“Feeling” Prosthetics

Description

Using “Biometric Feedback” and/or using “Asynchronous Coded Electronic Skin (ACES)”, researchers have been able to create prosthetics that can feel and recreate the lost sensation. The feedback takes into account of the nerves to create the sensation while the ACES looks into the skin itself to create that sensation.
