Erik Engeberg of FAU is using liquid metal sensors on artificial intelligence fingertips to provide a more realistic touch sensation for prosthetics. Engeberg inserts the metal sensors into each fingertip to collect individual sensory data that can send signals to the entire hand.
“Our goal is to get one step closer to helping improve an amputee’s quality of life with more natural prosthetic options that lets them feel and respond to their environment. Eventually every sensation on an artificial prosthetic should feel more natural,” Engeberg said. “It’s the future of AI.”
