Mind-Controlled Robot Arm Lets Paralyzed Man Drink A Beer On His Own
23 May 2015, 12:00 am

                    A man paralyzed for 13 years can finally have a drink on his own again, thanks to a robotic arm he's able to control using his brain. "I joke around with the guys that I want to be able to drink my own beer -- to be able to take a drink at my own pace, when I want to take a sip out of my beer and to not have to ask somebody to give it to me," Erik Sorto, 34, said in a news release from the California Institute of Technology.
