Medi-Rehatek will introduce a new intelligent fingers. "Normally, when you want to move the arm, the human brain produces a command signal that travels along the nerve to the arm, where the muscle is activated by signal.Then you can move the arm." says Bauer, director of orthopedic surgery at the National Military Medical Center in Walter Reed. “When the person's arm is injuredand even broken off, the stump will still receive and retain the instructions transmitted over the brain.Intelligent prostheses can collect the brain signal that isretained in the residual limb muscles, the prosthesis can translate them into a computer instruction language, and then drive the metal arm to produce the appropriate movement. This action by the prosthesis will be relatively smooth, basically from instinct and intuition. " National Military Medical Center of Walter Reed successfully installed a new type of intelligent prostheses for an (arm) of US disabled soldier (arms) for the first time in the United States. The prosthetic weighs about 9 pounds, can be controlled intelligently by the human brain.The metal fingers can make an independent action, the action is finely divided into 22 degree, almost to the degree of real ones. The intelligent prosthesis is approved and specially initiated a project by Applied Physics Laboratory of Johns Hopkins University of United States and National Military Medical Center of Walter Reed and other agencies, which developed for 4 years. At present, the project's scientists are committed to collecting the action instruction issued by human brain “without missing a message” , so that the action of the mechanical arm can be more "arbitrary."
