Limen

Engineeringhuman capability.

Limen NTNU is a voluntary, nonprofit student association in Trondheim. We explore neural interfaces, bionics, and technology for the human body.

Explore our work

The nervous system is where we begin.

We want to investigate how neural and muscular signals can be measured, interpreted, and used to control physical systems—and how useful sensory information can return to the person using them.

Explore neural interfaces

Read the signal.

How can useful information be separated from noise in neural and muscular signals?

Connect it to action.

How can an interpreted signal become a control input that responds reliably as conditions change?

Close the loop.

What feedback helps a person understand and adjust the response of a device?

Research directions.

Our scope extends beyond any one prosthesis or interface. We distinguish current emphasis from longer-term investigation.

Our purpose.

We explore how technology can restore, strengthen, and extend human capabilities through interdisciplinary engineering, practical learning, and shared knowledge.

Limen's activities centre on development projects, technical prototyping, and sharing knowledge in bionics, robotics, and human–technology interaction.
