Revolutionary AI-Driven Prosthetics Enable Mind-Controlled Limbs Without Surgery

TL;DR Summary
Phantom Neuro, a startup, is developing muscle implants that could enable mind-controlled prosthetics without the need for brain surgery. This technology aims to provide amputees with more natural and accurate control over prosthetic limbs by directly interfacing with muscles, overcoming limitations of current myoelectric prosthetics. A recent study showed promising results with a wearable version of the sensors, achieving high accuracy in gesture control. The company plans to begin clinical trials for the implantable version in 2025, potentially revolutionizing prosthetic use for amputees.
