An advanced robotic arm is more than just beautiful technology. Use of such a prosthesis is not just about confirming, as a conversation with Arie Rommers shows. He has been using a bionic arm, the Bebionic, for some time now. “You can get a really nice bionic arm, but your brain has to control it, so you have to feel good about yourself”
