How to build a bionic hand | Aadeel Akhtar

Devin speaks with Aadeel Akhtar, CEO and co-founder of Psyonic, a company designing advanced bionic limbs for both humans and robots. What started in academia has grown into a startup pushing the boundaries of human-machine synergy – including applications as ambitious as outer space. Devin and Aadeel talk about how PSYONIC’s work with EMG technology and direct nerve integration is reshaping what prosthetics can do, why Aadeel will always build for humans and robots, and – why future AI androids will be plenty smart, just not in a C-3PO kind of way.1:52  Aadeel’s journey to bionic hand innovation2:36  Serendipity in Ecuador6:39  From academia to startup: founding PSYONIC9:00  EMG technology10:57  Direct nerve integration12:32  Human - robot synergy14:09  Bionic hands in space 18:26  Lightening roundLinksDevin Liddell on LinkedInAadeel Akhtar on LinkedInTeagueAbout the Host: Futurist Devin LiddellDevin Liddell is the Principal Futurist at Teague.
