The or as something extraneous We do not consider various tools to be an extension of ourselves. To find out artificial parts of the body must be controlled in the same way as biological ones by transmitting electrical impulses from the brain to the muscles. However in the studies conducted so far participants had to control the devices using other parts of the body. Because of this intermediary it is difficult to assess how a person perceives the supplement. A researcher from Frances National Center for Scientific Research Gourishankar Ganesh together with a team from Japans University of Electro Communications conducted an experiment in which participants wore a robotic sixth finger alongside.
The little finger on one hand. Sensors were placed on participants forearms which Mobile Numbers translated electrical activity from their muscles into instructions for a robotic finger. The device could be moved both together with other fingers and separately. The subjects were then asked to play a video game and respond to music and visual cues by flexing and extending their fingers real and artificial. This activity was supposed to help them get used to the extra body part. The degree of perception of the robotic finger was assessed using questionnaires and behavioral tests. Participants were asked how they felt using an artificial finger.
They were then asked to rate how much they agreed with statements such as normal and I felt the artificial finger as part of my hand. Behavioral tests were performed both before and after participants wore the sixth finger. The device was not used during the tests their goal was to determine where people thought their little finger was when they could not see it. The results The researchers found a relationship between participants scores on the questionnaire and their ability to locate their little finger after wearing the sixth finger. The better the perception of the sixth finger the less.
