Nervous system-controlled bionic legs improve amputees' walking

A groundbreaking study published in Nature Medicine showcased the success of bionic legs controlled by the nervous system, allowing amputees to walk more naturally. Seven patients underwent the agonist-antagonist myoneural interface (AMI) surgery, enabling them to walk faster and more naturally than those with traditional prostheses. This innovative approach offers unprecedented brain-controlled movement, reducing pain and muscle atrophy.
