Robots are making life easier for amputees and people with mobility issues. This brain controlled robot by APL can cut and feed Twinkies. It reads users’ brain signals to cut the food with fork and knife. It combines with a software to bring the food close enough to the mouth for effortless eating.

As this video from APL shows, Robert “Buz” Chmielewski relied on this dual-arm robot system to eat Twinkies. He has had 6 electrode arrays implanted into both sides of his brain to control the process.
