muscles that extend into the forearm allow you to grasp and open your fingers. and our finger tips are densely packed with thousands of nerve endings that makes them highly sensitive to touch. a lot of brain power is needed to process all these nerve impulses and control muscle movements in the brain, sensory and motor cortex. the areas associated with your hands are especially large that allows us to carry out very complex hand movements. another part of the brain plays a role in coordinating in fine tuning those movements. the cerebellum. the cerebellum has more than half the neurons in your brain and constantly makes fine adjustments to motor movements. that's why once we've learned a complex motor skill, like riding a bike, we can do it again and again without giving it all too much thought. and there's

8:38 am
steal with sports entries every day. treating a dislocated wrist can be particularly problematic. it's not them liam, does this, i love flying more than anything, and i've been playing the piano since i was a girl. so my 1st thought was, what will happen to those 2 things? i love those lines often pass, young pilot louder cometh, dislocated a joint in both wrists in the fall to dislocated joint found like it would be easy to fix it. i was quoted as an a dislocated risk, which is usually the wrist is also broken. and there are torn ligaments, isn't all of that needs to be realigned in repairing those joints requires very precise and complex surgery it la commerce had a serious injury which was clearly visible on the x ray. you'd have more fun. why this is the lunatic bone. it's called that because it's crushing shape elephant on
8:39 am
a mile. it's popped out of its normal position. the on the other bones are still in the correct position, but they're no longer a functional unit. because these carpal bones and the ligaments form a unit, a nun if one bone pops out and the, the ligaments are affected, analysis and the rest becomes unstable at the sound, getting things to be when her ambulance arrived at the trauma center, she was no longer conscious what do you remember about the accident? it shunt. i'm feeling a little i was in line waiting for a climbing wall. it was busy, so i figured i'd try a different one. i started climbing and just forgot to secure myself. but luckily i didn't climb all the way to the tom about some company that would have been over 6 meters. i let go after 3 or 4 meters on a right before i hit the ground, i realized i wasn't secured. so i automatically reached out and fell on my hands. it was the worst pain i'd ever felt my life. long as i was lying there,

8:46 am
specific movements, the robotic lem, we'll use artificial intelligence to learn specific movement patterns. the electrodes inside the robotic lim, register the muscle impulses from the upper arm. the app matches these muscular patterns to specific movements and stores them. while voice gang bowers spent weeks learning the basics, the company's engineers were building his robotic lim. now it's ready to learn and adapt to voice gang bowers movement patterns. his robotic lim has brought him a major increase in quality of life. but in his drawings, movements is just amazing room. all you have to do is imagine opening your hand and the robot hand opens. candidates imagine closing at it and it closes same with rotating. anything on the prosthetic arm just doesn't intervene. as with many things, practice makes perfect. that's the only way the intelligent prosthesis can continue
