Abstract :
A neuro-controlled bionic arm will be able to allow an amputee to move his or her prosthetic arm as if it is a real limb simply by thinking. The arm also empowers patients with more natural movement, greater range of motion and restores lost function. To design a system which connects the brain to the arm through nerves is possible only when the system will have good control and accuracy. By proper designing, a brain can communicate directly with artificial arms. Essentially, the design should allow greater control of the arm by decoding the signals sent by the muscles so that a patient thinks to bend his/her wrist and wrist bends. Similarly they can think to rotate wrist and their wrist rotates.
