"Welcome to the future of prosthetic limbs: true mind control. For the first time ever, an amputee need only think about a movement—picking up a glass, for instance—and the 12-pound Neuro-Controlled Bionic Arm dutifully coordinates the task. Electrodes intercept the limb's residual nerve firings and feed them to a computer embedded in the forearm, which then commands six motors to move the device's shoulder, elbow and hand in unison. Thanks to hand sensors, the wearer can even gauge pressure and fine-tune his grip."
