Bionic Hand Gives Amputee Touchy-Feely SensationsAn amputee was able to feel sensations in a prosthetic hand temporarily wired to nerves in his upper arm. Silvestro Micera, Ph.D., led a team of researchers in testing the bionic hand prototype last year. Dennis Aabo Sorensen, a Danish man who lost his hand in an accident nine years ago, was able to differentiate between the shape and consistency of six different objects.
