Robotic Prosthesis Turns Drummer into a Three-Armed Cyborg From: Medical Design Technology - 03/06/2014 Invention gives amputee more control and creativity Professor Gil Weinberg has created a robot that can be attached to amputees, allowing its technology to be embedded into humans. The robotic drumming prosthesis has motors that power two drumsticks. The first stick is controlled both physically by the musicians’ arms and electronically using electromyography (EMG) muscle sensors. The other stick "listens" to the music being played and improvises.
