From Sci-Fi to Reality, Helping Veterans & Beyond
As featured on FOX13 News, Biologic Input Output Systems (BIOS) with the University of Utah Neurorobotics Lab is making incredible strides in advancing robotics and neural interfaces. The BIOS neural interface, inspired by Luke Skywalker, is giving individuals with limb loss a renewed sense of normalcy and independence.
"With our system, we have an implanted device that allows the person to simply think about moving their hand, and it moves with their thoughts. And what’s better than a bionic arm controlled by thoughts? Well, that same arm can actually give a person a sense of touch."
- Jake George, Ph.D., BIOS Chief Scientist, Director of the Utah NeuroRobotics Lab
