The Robotic Arm that Can Imitate the Movements of a Human Arm

Caption

There is a polymeric complex that acts as a human-robot interconnect and can transmit human arm movements to robot arms. The material developed by the KIST team was utilized as an interconnect and attached to the human body to allow for the measurement of biometric signals in real time. The signals were then transmitted to a robotic arm, which successfully and accurately imitated (in real time) the movements of a human arm.
