An electronic tattoo has been developed to help people with prosthetic hands feel touched as before
On November 27, 2023, researchers from the Italian Institute of Technology reported the development of an ultra-thin electronic tattoo capable of reproducing the sensation of local touch from its owner. The technology is expected to find applications in various fields, including robotics, healthcare, IT, etc.
The tattoo is only a few micrometers thick. The product uses an electrothermopneumatic effect, which consists in the rapid local heating of a small volume of air enclosed between two very thin films. Expanding, the air creates forces that cause tactile sensations on the skin. Due to the very small thickness, the tattoo after application to the surface of the body remains almost invisible. At the same time, a small low-voltage battery can be used for power supply.
During the experiments, the tattoo was applied to the fingertips of volunteers. Participants reported feeling an average of 9 out of 10 stimulations. At the same time, there is completely no discomfort associated with heating the element.
The authors of the project believe that the proposed solution can form the basis of light, compact and energy-efficient tactile displays of a new generation. In addition, the technology can be used, for example, in the creation of prostheses with tactile feedback, which will allow amputees to feel touched as before. Other applications are games and virtual reality, where the system can lead to improved user interaction interfaces with digital objects. Researchers are working to create panels with several tactile elements that can be activated independently of each other: this will allow you to recreate letters, numbers and patterns on the skin.[1]

On August 4, 2023, it became known about the instructions of Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin regarding the preparation of a plan for the development of the Russian prosthesis market. This was reported on the website of the Cabinet.
 | , and To the Ministry of Industry and Trade To the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection To the Ministry of Health To Roszdravnadzor it is necessary by November [2023] to submit to the government proposals for the development of the production of domestic raw materials, materials and components for the manufacture of prosthetic and orthopedic products intended for rehabilitation, the government press service said. |  |
In July 2023, the Federation Council asked the government to resolve the issue of providing disabled people with rehabilitation means. The upper house of parliament believes that the country cannot depend on supplies from other countries. Speaker of the Federation Council Valentina Matvienko cited data from specialized institutes, according to which the share of Russian manufacturers of lower limb prostheses does not exceed 20-25%, and upper limb prostheses - no more than 10%.
According to Matvienko, a program is needed to form a competitive, sustainable rehabilitation industry that provides the needs of people with disabilities with modern and high-quality technical means of rehabilitation. It is also necessary to adopt additional measures of state support.
In early August 2023, Alexey Komyagin, director of the Center for Competence of the National Technological Initiative (NTI) "Bionic Engineering in Medicine" on the basis of Samara State Medical University (SamGMU), said that the Russian developers of exoprostheses implanted in the bones of the arms and legs intend to complete the development and submit the first samples by 2026. Exoprostheses will execute user commands by processing neuromuscular signals. The sensations of using an artificial limb will be as close as possible to working with a real hand or foot, the developers assure.[2]
The Ministry of Industry and Trade has developed measures to support the production of prosthetic limbs in Russia
In early July 2023, the Ministry of Industry and Trade spoke about the developed measures to support the production of prosthetic limbs in Russia. According to the head of the department Denis Manturov, in the Russian Federation, about 50 manufacturers in the country are developing and producing prostheses of the upper and lower extremities, which over the past 5 years have brought to the market a total of more than 300 different domestic technical solutions for people with disabilities.
As Manturov said, an information and analytical center was created specifically for the prosthetic industry on the basis of the Institute of Medical Materials of the Ministry of Industry and Trade in 2023, which is designed to ensure the consolidation of market needs.
| | We support work on these areas. But the scaling of production should be based on a clear understanding of the volumes and range of necessary products, he said. | |
The key area of work of the new structure will be monitoring, analysis and forecast of the state of prosthetic and orthopedic enterprises and their production capacities, analysis and forecast of the demand and supply of domestic products in Russia and abroad, as well as analysis of problematic issues to develop approaches to their operational solution.
The Ministry of Industry and Trade has developed 19 different support measures, grouped in four areas. They cover a wide range of tasks - from improving the quality of rehabilitation products to their promotion to domestic and foreign markets, from creating innovative products to improving the level of qualifications of employees engaged in this area.
One of the events of the complex will be the holding of training and familiarization seminars, where representatives of charitable foundations, pharmacy chains, as well as people with disabilities can get acquainted with new samples of rehabilitation products made at domestic enterprises.[3]
Putin instructed to expand the production of electronic prostheses
President RFVladimir Putin approved a list of instructions following a meeting of the supervisory board of the autonomous non-profit organization Agency for Strategic Initiatives to Promote New Projects, held on February 9, 2023. The Kremlin press service announced this on March 30, 2023. One of the instructions concerns the development of the production of prostheses.
| | The Government of the Russian Federation... with the participation of the Commission of the State Council of the Russian Federation in the direction of "Social Policy" to develop and implement a set of measures aimed at creating conditions for expanding the production of prostheses in the Russian Federation and supporting small enterprises in this area, including ensuring the production of a wide range of components for prostheses, their electronic components, including micro-motors and microchips, - the text of the order says. | |
Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin and Svetlana Chupsheva, General Director of the Agency for Strategic Initiatives to Promote New Projects, have been appointed responsible for fulfilling the order. They will have to provide a report on this instructions by July 1, 2023.
According to Kommersant, in 2023 the Russian market for technical rehabilitation tools may face an influx of clients. According to experts, we should expect an increase in demand for prosthetic arms and legs. The reason for this may be injuries resulting from a special military operation and the need among residents of the annexed territories.
Andrey Davidyuk, CEO of Motorika, at a meeting with Vladimir Putin, said that the company sees the prospects for the Russian prosthesis market and understands its export potential.
| | At the same time, at the moment in our country there are an order of magnitude fewer small prosthetic enterprises than in the leading states, with a comparable population. We ask you to instruct the government to develop support measures for small prosthetic enterprises, which are a very important element of the rehabilitation industry for people with disabilities, "said Davidyuk.[4] | |
2022
Sales of prosthetic limbs in Russia increased by 2.8%, to 36.2 billion rubles
Sales of prosthetic limbs in Russia in 2022 reached 36.2 billion rubles, which became a new record. Compared to 2021, the market volume increased by 2.8%, analysts at GuideMarket calculated, whose data were published in November 2023.
Sales of prosthetic limbs in monetary terms in the Russian Federation in 2018-2022. steadily grew. This was partly facilitated by the rapid increase in prices for prosthetic and orthopedic products. This is explained by both inflation and improvements in the prostheses themselves, which make them more functional and comfortable for patients. These changes make prostheses more accessible and useful to a wide range of people who need them, the researchers explain.
According to them, the statistics of 2022 show that the demand for prosthetic limbs remains consistently high, and every year it continues to grow. The positive dynamics of the market indicates that improving the quality of life of people with mobility restrictions is becoming more relevant and affordable. This, in turn, contributes to the further development of the prosthesis industry and the creation of more innovative and functional products that will help people overcome physical barriers and improve their quality of life, add GuideMarket specialists.
According to Kommersant, in 2022 Russia faced an increase in the number of people in need of technical means of rehabilitation (TSR), primarily in prosthetic limbs. They are needed by seriously injured servicemen and civilians in the new Russian regions where the fighting is taking place.
By the end of 2022, 1.5 million citizens with disabilities lived in Russia, who were shown the use of prostheses, strollers, canes. The costs of them are compensated by the Federal Social Insurance Fund.[5]

In Russia, created an engine for bionic prostheses, which simulates the movement of fingers
Russia has created an engine for bionic prostheses that simulates finger movement. We are talking about the development of the Perm National Research Polytechnic University.
According to TASS, citing the press service of the federal program "Priority 2030," university scientists showed a 3D model of a linear cylindrical engine, which will make it possible to bring the imitation of muscle contraction in the prosthesis of the hand as close as possible to natural movements. The technology is said to be unparalleled in the world.
| | Now prostheses with rotation engines are more often used, which use mechanical transmission to control the movement of limbs, "says Denis Oparin, senior lecturer at the Department of Electrical Engineering and Electromechanics at Perm Polytechnic. - But the most efficient and reliable systems with natural movement. They are as close as possible to managing a person's limb. Linear electric motors have the same type of movement as muscles and will make the movement of prostheses the most natural. Their disadvantages include low power and large size, due to which they have not yet been installed in autonomous prostheses. | |
Perm scientists have designed a small linear engine that provides high positioning accuracy. As a power element, they used a small-sized DC source that is located in the prosthesis body. When calculating, the researchers developed 3D models of the engine, its components and their location in the prosthesis body. The diameter of the engine inductor was 25 mm, and the length was 81 mm. The engine will be able to develop a force of 14.7 N at a current of 0.47 A.
The development, according to scientists, can be used in prostheses of the hand or forearm, and also to create modular structures with quick-detachable elements, in drives of exoskeletal systems and in prostheses of solid limbs.[6]
Robotic, brain-controlled human hands created
In early June 2022, University of Minnesota researchers developed a more accurate and less invasive technology that allows amputees to move a robotic arm using signals from their brains rather than muscles. The implantable device attaches to a peripheral nerve in a person's hand, according to a University of Minnesota Department of Biomedical Engineering research team. Combined with a computer with artificial intelligence and a robotic arm, the device can read and interpret brain signals, allowing amputees to control the arm using only their thoughts.

The woman was partially given her vision by connecting the camera to the brain
In mid-February 2020, neurotechnologists from the Massachusetts University of Technology spoke about the successful results of many years of research that should help blind people regain their vision. The first patient had already managed to partially regain her vision by connecting the camera to an implant in the visual cortex.
This operation was made possible by Eduardo Fernandez, Director of Neuroengineering at Miguel Hernandez University in Elche, Spain. He wanted to return vision to as many blind people as possible. Fernandez's approach is especially interesting because he acts around the eye and optical nerves. The creation of an artificial eye or retina is possible, but in the vast majority of cases blindness is associated with damage to the nervous system, and not the retina itself. Therefore, Fernandez decided to go the other way.
Bernardeta Gómez was completely blind for 16 years, when after toxic optical neuropathy she lost a number of neurons that ensure the operation of the visual analyzer. However, after the operation in 2018, she got the opportunity to see the world around her again, albeit at a very low resolution, in the form of flaming white and yellow dots and shapes. Vision is provided by a modified pair of darkened glasses equipped with a tiny camera. She is connected to a computer that processes video in real time, turning it into electronic signals, and a cable suspended from the ceiling connects the system to a port embedded in the back of Gomez's skull, which is connected to a 100-electrode implant in her brain's visual cortex.
While the researchers continue to develop the device, they hope that their results will soon be able to become the basis of a therapeutic solution available around the world.[7]
2019
Prosthetic leg that allows the wearer to feel the foot and knee
In early September 2019, orthopedic surgeons began installing Össur bionic prostheses developed by an international team of researchers that allow disabled people to feel the knee and foot. At the same time, neurofeedback based on sensors connecting to residual nerves of the hip significantly reduces the physical and mental stress of users. Read more here.
Prosthetic hands began to connect directly to the nerves of a person
In early February 2019, Swedish surgeons performed the first operation to connect a bionic prosthetic arm directly to the nerves. The amputee became the first recipient of the musculoskeletal implant.
Surgeons installed titanium implants in the bones of the forearm and connected the electrodes of the prosthesis with the nerves and muscles of the hand. Conventional prostheses use surface electrodes whose signals are limited and unreliable and allow only a few rough movements to be controlled. Chalmers University scientists say implanting electrodes into all the stump muscles allows for a wider range of movements and sensations.
In addition, the sensory feedback of modern prostheses is limited, which makes it difficult for users to feel the moment of touch or determine with what force they are squeezing the object. The electrodes of the new prosthesis are implanted directly into the nerves and are connected to biological sensors, so that the patient can more fully perceive the world around.
The implantation technology was developed by scientists at Integrum AB - the company that created the first bone limb prosthesis using osteointegration - and Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, led by Max Ortiz Catalan, who heads the biomechatronics and neurorehabilitation laboratory. The prosthesis itself was created by the Italian company Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna.
Sixteen electrodes were implanted in the first patient. After the operation, she will have a period of training using virtual reality devices - they will help her get used to the capabilities of a new prosthesis. During the first quarter of 2019, new generation prostheses will be implanted in two more patients in Italy and Sweden.[8]
2018: World's first 3D-printed bionic eye unveiled
In late August 2018, a team from the University of Minnesota announced a project for what is claimed to be the world's first 3D-printed bionic eye. It gives great hope to patients who have lost their sight.
The researchers first applied an array of light-responsive receptors to a solid hemispherical surface using a 3D printer. The latest developments allowed the introduction of light sensing devices with relatively high sensitivity and a wide field of view, and the 3D silver-based ink printer used by the team allowed them to be applied to a curved surface so that they dry evenly rather than run down the surface. Semiconductor polymer materials have allowed researchers to print LEDs that convert light into electricity. The entire printing process takes about an hour.
3D printing has previously been used in the comprehensive design of LEDs using various functional inks. The researchers proved that polymer-based photosensitive elements show high performance with an efficiency of 25.3%. The advantage of printed polymer elements over conventional semiconductors is that they can be applied directly to a curved surface.
The team plans to create a prototype with lighter and more efficient receptors, as well as develop a technique to print on soft hemispherical material that can be implanted in the real eye.
The same research team has already developed a bionic "ear," combining 3D printing, electronics and bionics on a production platform. In addition, they were engaged in 3D printing of artificial organs for surgical operations, the development of electronic tissues that could serve as bionic skin, as well as prostheses that could help people with spinal cord injuries restore some lost functions.[9]
2017
The first installation of a bionic eye in Russia
In July 2017, the FMBA Research and Clinical Center for Otorhinolaryngology underwent an operation to install the Argus II bionic eye to 58-year-old Grigory Ulyanov from Chelyabinsk. He became the first Russian to receive such an implant. Read more here.
Installing a prosthetic hand controlled by the power of thought
In April 2017, it became known about the operation to install a prosthetic arm controlled by the power of thought. A feature of the development was that the robotic arm connects not to the brain, but to the bone.
Truck driver Dutchman Johan Baggerman lost his hand in 2010 as a result of an accident. From 2013 to 2016, he underwent three operations aimed at installing a prosthesis. Only in April 2017, the patient began the final stage of rehabilitation.
Baggerman was fitted with an artificial limb, connecting it to the bone and adjusting its control of the power of thought by connecting the patient's nerve endings to a special connector with a Bluetooth bracelet.
In the first operation, a metal rod was installed in the bone core, during the second, a component was implanted to connect the bionic hand. The third surgery, performed by a plastic surgeon, involved connecting all nerves involved in the management of the patient's arm muscles to a shoulder stump. This enhances the nerve signal that helps the patient manage the artificial limb after treatment.
Due to the fact that the prosthesis was connected directly to the bone of a person, the process of removing and installing the hand is significantly facilitated and thereby the skin problem is eliminated.
| | All movements can be performed using the shoulder. This gives patients a greater range of motion. Another advantage is that the prosthesis attaches easily and quickly, "said surgeon Jean Paul Frolke, who took part in the development of the new prosthesis. | |
The difficulty lies in the fact that the period of installation and rehabilitation of such prostheses is very long. In the case of Johan Baggerman, it took seven years, and he has yet to learn how to fully control the robotic hand with the power of thought.[10]
2016: First bionic eye implantation
