6: Prosthetic hand
Matt was initially instructed to move a neural cursor "up" to open the hand, and "down" to close the hand. While at first he looked at both the video monitor and prosthetic hand, he disregarded the monitor after a few trials and regarded only the hand while manipulating it in real time. In this film he is describes aloud what he intends the hand to do. This was trial day 114 and the first day that he was shown the prosthetic hand.
