Re: Robotic arm used through direct neural stimulation
Amazing. Now THAT would be a job worth working at. As the article states, the technology is years from commercial, but wow, that redefines the concept of human-machine interface.

30 years ago, as an engineering student, I took a course in Biomedical engineering. Fascinating how the body-as-a-machine works, and back then The Problem was just that: How to control whatever robotic thingus that was developed. I'm very gratified to see how much headway they've made.

Nice post!
