An incredible demonstration by researchers at the University of Pittsburgh in the United States: a monkey managed to
move an articulated robotic arm by using only its mind.
The use of control by the mind with sensors in the brain is not a world first, but it still has an effect.
All the more so in this case; it's definitely one of the most advanced manipulations that exist: the
robotic arm has 7 degrees of freedom.
In the experiment, the monkey catches the black object by moving the articulated arm only with its mind and the electrodes linked to its brain.
