Summary of the technique:
1. Surgically reconfigure amputees nerves that once controlled the arm and the hand so they are compatible with their pattern recognition scheme
2. Teach the pattern recognition system to respond to patients neural stimuli to said nerves : “We use pattern recognition algorithms to identify individual muscles that are contracting, how well they communicate with each other, and their amplitude and frequency,” Chi explained. “We take that information and translate that into actual movements within a prosthetic.”
3. Attach the robotic hands to the patient.
