Bionic Robot Hand Controlled Using "Shared Autonomy"
From: Engineering TV Weekly Update

This prosthetic robot hand is controlled via "shared autonomy", where the
user sends bio-signals to the electronics embedded in the hand to enable
movement. The firmness of the grip can be controlled as well. The prosthetic
was developed by engineers at the Edinburgh Centre for Robotics in
collaboration with Touch Bionics.
