Blue Arbor Technologies Inc., a company that develops novel neuromuscular interfaces and next-generation robotic prosthetic control systems, recently announced that the US Food and Drug Administration granted Breakthrough Device Designation to the RESTORE Neuromuscular Interface System for people with upper limb loss.

The RESTORE System is designed to seamlessly integrate the peripheral nervous system with commercially available robotic prosthetics to restore naturalistic hand and arm function in patients with upper limb loss.
