Bionics Crash Course, pt5: Muscle Mapping #Shorts

A quick explainer on what I’m actually doing inside the socket to move my bionic arm!

I use a pretty simple five-point control system for daily use: handshake grip, power grip, hand open, wrist pronate, and wrist supinate.

Luckily, my control system from @coaptcontrol makes the system pretty intuitive. Instead of tapping out Morse code on a single sensor to control multiple degrees of freedom, I just move my arm however I think the grip should feel, and it works.
