New Device that Couples Wearable Biosensors with AI Could be Used to Control Prosthetics


New Device that Couples Wearable Biosensors with AI Could be Used to Control Prosthetics
Written by AZoSensorsDec 22 2020
Imagine typing on a computer without a keyboard, playing a video game without a controller or driving a car without a wheel.
That s one of the goals of a new device developed by engineers at the University of California, Berkeley, that can recognize hand gestures based on electrical signals detected in the forearm.
The system, which couples wearable biosensors with artificial intelligence (AI), could one day be used to control prosthetics or to interact with almost any type of electronic device.
Prosthetics are one important application of this technology, but besides that, it also offers a very intuitive way of communicating with computers. said Ali Moin, who helped design the device as a doctoral student in UC Berkeley s Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences. ....
