DEKA arm system

DEKA arm system, a robotic prosthesis, developed with funding from DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency), to restore functionality of a limb for individuals with an amputation. Muscular signals are translated by the prosthesis to allow for near-natural implementation of complex tasks, including grasp and fine-motor activities.
