Summary
This early-stage study tests whether tiny electrode arrays implanted in the arm nerves of three amputees can record nerve signals and provide a sense of touch. The goal is to see if these signals can be used to control a prosthetic hand more naturally. The study focuses on measuring how well the electrodes pick up nerve activity, not on providing a treatment or cure.
