"Click-On" Prosthesis is Designed to Use Thought Control
From: Rehab Management - 04/26/2017

A patient in the Netherlands is one of only a handful of people in the world
to receive a prosthetic arm that is designed to click directly onto the arm
stump and can be controlled by the patient's own thoughts.

The so-called "click-on" prosthesis is connected directly to one's arm stump
through an opening in the skin, where it 'clicks' onto a metal rod in the arm
bone. Because the prosthesis connects directly to the skeleton, a prosthesis
socket is no longer necessary. This ensures that it does not slip off, avoids
skin problems, and makes it very easy to put on and take off.

Click-on prostheses have reportedly been used for some time for the legs.
However, the main difference here with the arm prosthesis is that it is
designed to communicate with the patient's nerves, allowing it to be
controlled via thoughts, per the release.
