Prosthetics that Feel
Description
There are nearly two million amputees living in the United States today. Newer, high-tech prosthetics have made life easier for many of them. But even with these devices patients still can't feel what they're touching. But biomedical engineers are working on a prosthetic arm that's changing the game for amputees.
