  1. How Thoughts Became Reality: History In The Making Neurogress.io For amputees, the idea of being able to control a prosthetic limb using only the power of their mind has long been a fantasy straight out of a science fiction movie. With only basic limbs available either for purely cosmetic purposes or offering only the most rudimentary of movements, the concept of ever being able to regain control of a fully functioning hand or arm seemed a long way off. The History of Prosthetics The earliest prostheses were known to have been made in Rome, Greece and Egypt, with the earliest written reference to artificial limbs dating back to about the time of Herodotus in 500 BC. Amputation was introduced in the 16th century as a surgical solution for saving lives, and it was around this time that Ambroise Paré began creating scientifically designed prosthetics. It was not until 1863 that artificial limbs were first attached to the body, and then, in 1898, the first limb was developed using muscle contractions for movement. Although strides forward were made in the creation of prosthetic limbs over the next hundred years, their function remained very limited, often only managing a single movement at a time. In the year 2000, a neurobiologist at Duke University Medical Centre implanted electrodes inside a monkey's brain which allowed it to control a robotic arm. The research on a monkey was the first indication that humans may eventually be able to move an artificial limb using purely the power of thought. The Latest Developments in Cutting Edge Neurocontrol In 2015 the US Government's defense research agency, DARPA, enabled an almost entirely paralyzed woman to control a robotic arm using only her thoughts, allowing her to take a drink. While this was an important step, the technology required to achieve this involved surgery to implant sensors into the patient's brain-involves risky and invasive surgery. Implanting sensor into the brain is not only off-putting to amputees, but also prohibitively expensive, especially when paired with the cost of the most cutting-edge prosthetic limbs. The latest non-invasive neural control from Neurogress resolve both of these problems thru a wearable neural interface, so there are no risks involved for the amputee. As the prosthetic will be able to be 3D printed, it can be produced quickly and inexpensively. Thanks to Neurogress, thoughts are now becoming reality, with complete mind control of realistic prosthetic limbs as a revolutionary breakthrough. Are you excited about the possibility of mind-controlled prosthetics? Do you think that a surgery-free solution which allows for full control of artificial limbs is the way forward?
