Researchers in Ohio have found a revolutionary way to let amputees feel what they're touching with prosthetic hands.

The team from Cleveland Veterans Affairs Medical Center and Case Western Reserve University has created a means of letting users feel more sensations, better, and with more sustained results than ever before.

While others have hade lukewarm success at connecting nerves with electrodes, this team's special technique has created remarkable results.
