Australian Researchers Developing Robot to Use 3D Printed Microchips

A group of researchers from several Australian institutions is studying the way the human arm communicates signals to the brain, with the intention of reproducing that signaling process artificially. Right now they're working on prototyping a robotic arm that would use 3D printed microchips to facilitate communication between implanted electrodes and natural tissue and muscle - potentially returning the sense of touch to those with missing limbs.
