AI Enhances Bionic Hands for Amputees

Researchers at the University of Utah have developed an AI-powered bionic hand that helps amputees use their prosthetic hands more easily.

Many people with bionic hands stop using them because they are hard to control.

The new AI system acts like a co-pilot, helping the hand adjust its grip automatically.

This makes it easier to pick up and hold things without crushing or dropping them.

In tests, the AI hand was much more successful at tasks like picking up a paper cup or moving fragile objects.

The researchers say the technology is still being tested and is not yet as natural as a real hand, but it shows a lot of promise.

They plan to test it in real-world settings and work with more people to improve it.
