Atom Limbs builds the Atom Touch, an AI-powered bionic arm using non-invasive EMG sensors to translate muscle signals into precise individual finger control. The neural interface AI decodes surface electromyography signals in real time to enable near-full range of human motion without surgical implants. The technology is derived from a decade of DARPA-funded research at Johns Hopkins' Applied Physics Laboratory, which Atom Limbs commercializes via an exclusive partnership. The company targets a $25,000 price point for commercial deployment pending FDA approval.
