Since then, the history of prosthetics has moved from semi-functional fiber to solely aesthetic metal limbs, to legs made out of various materials attached to harnesses that allowed limited movement, passing through the well-known peg legs and hooks. Post-World War II heavy investment and technology innovations have produced radical improvements that have made prosthetics more functional, comfortable, and realistic. Researchers have struggled with providing prosthetics with a sense of touch, but not anymore. Over the past fifteen years, a biomedical engineering team at the University of Utah have developed a prosthetic arm that allows users to feel what they are touching inspired by ...
