Robotic Third Thumb changes how hand represented in brain – study

Using a robotic Third Thumb can impact how the hand is represented in the brain, a new study has found. Researchers trained people to use a robotic extra thumb and found they could effectively carry out dexterous tasks, like building a tower of blocks using the one hand. Researchers said participants trained to use the thumb also increasingly felt like it was a part of their body. Designer Dani Clode started developing the device, called the Third Thumb, as part of an award-winning graduate project at the Royal College of Art, seeking to reframe the way we view prosthetics, from replacing a lost function, to an extension of the human body.
