The very first bionic hand that allows the amputee to actually feel what the hand is touching will be transplanted later this year.

According to doctors involved in the surgery the hand will be attached directly to the patient’s nervous system via electrodes clipped onto two of the arm’s main nerves. This will allow the patient to control the hand directly with his thoughts, and receive sensory signals to his brain from the bionic hand.

This will be a major breakthrough in prosthetics and could open the door to a new generation of artificial limbs with sensory perception.
