They're Building Him an AI Powered Robotic Arm

Med-tech is one of the most underrated categories in deep tech — but Atom Limbs is challenging that on Episode 62 of S3.They're building robotic arms driven by AI, vertically integrated, to own quality and cost to deliver unprecedented value to amputees.

That is an amazing sensor suite and software that comprises the interface. Awesome work!

One day these robotic arms will be no different from our "real" biological arms.

Reply to this comment when we get there.

Incredible!! Just think how advanced these will be - in ten years!!
Thousands and thousands of lives will be changed - hopefully EVERY year!
Please keep up this amazing work! Kudos to your entire Team!

Interesting, I just read trough the research paper of Meta about 'Digit 360' and gelSight. Advanced touch sensors for finger tips, that are able discern the widest array of materials, textures, pressures etc.. They even have acoustic sensing, that gives feed back over the state of an touched object, like if its liquid filled, partially or fully filed etc..

Steve would have loved the AI today i bet he would be disappointed his company isnt up leading in AI :) and this work here is amazing top notch aalso :)

Who else feels like we've already peaked with the technical aspects
And all we have to focus on now is system control with ai to optimize movements
Kind of like the recent update with the unitree robot walking more normally by just simulating motions in a virtual environment

What happened to the DARPA “LUKE” hand? This seems similar?

Awesome mission and progress!

imagine this affordable, to all. will be live changing and be felt Utopian AI world we living.

imagine a kid in poor country have this for her 2 hands, allowing her to appropriately grow, with her cool AI arms. isn't that Utopian Future?

It's still unclear to me how they're keeping the cost per unit down. Does anyone have an understanding of that?

[dmitryilchenko]

You should speak with Dr Aadeel Akhtar from Psyonic. Their Ability hand is actually more technologically interesting and is cheaper

[MegaTechno]

But where is the "AI" in this? Am I missing something?

[danielshehta]

It would be great to have 4 or even 6 arms like dr octopus from Spider-Man we can be more productive behind the keyboard and cut our workweek down to 30 hrs

If I were these guys I would focus more on the software and sensors (EMG) part, soon Tesla will release Optimus and probably its parts too... Like an arm. Tesla have almost infinity resources it's difficult to compete with their hardware, instead of competing, they would use it

How does it work to take the toy apart and rebuild it differently and more to a better idea that will surprise the company who made that toy

[MrExo_D]

Neural link and Tesla Optimus arms will take over.

[larrysmith]

I also thought maybe the Tesla Optimus could help with AI end to end operations.

3 words... ish lol - 3D Scanning Spray!

I have my two arms but somehow they connect a mechanic arm I believe that left side of the brain my be easier for them don't know ... Feels really cool I was watching Hannibal the series and Hannibal almost killed the FBI agent cut her arm and got a mechanic arm ... There's a spinal thing not sure was it was or how to describe ... Not necessary to kill anyone just by connecting that to the brain even if you are healthy and completely

[larrysmith]

Can your system be used in conjunction with Elon Musk's neural link technology?

[JaimeGerman-vcut]

sinners in the army or Leg will be able to control the robotic arm or Leg
