bionic hand
Mechanical replacement limb
A bionic hand is a prosthetic hand that uses electronic sensors and motors to restore movement to amputees.
The sensors detect muscle signals or nerve impulses in the remaining limb, translating intention into mechanical grip and finger movement.
Advanced versions provide sensory feedback, letting users feel pressure or texture.
She picked up the egg without crushing it—her bionic hand calibrated the grip automatically.
