the pathway that produces sounds and plays the role of the “Actor” (shown in fig. 1 in green).b. Experimenter: The second pathway (shown in fig. 1 above in red) plays the experimenter role and involves the AFP pathway – HVC, Area X, LMAN, DLM and VTA. It has been shown that particularly LMAN to RA projecting neurons are active during song development periods in young zebra finches and produce an experimental type of sound behavior, which plays an important part in the learning process.c. Critic: Lastly, researchers were able to identify neurons in adult birds that were active when the bird made an error while trying to produce a previously learned song4. The error identifying cells are located outside the traditional bird song

sensors. TheArduino Mega was also connected to a Raspberry Pi 3 model B to transfer data from/to an onlineweb application. One major limitation encountered during testing this prosthetic device was thespace occupied by these components, which makes the device bulky. In addition, these servomotors cannot control the movement of the prosthetic device precisely. In this paper, we proposeto improve on the existing prosthetic limb prototype by transitioning the electromechanical systemto linear actuators and replacing the larger Arduino Mega and Raspberry Pi 3 with the smallerArduino Nano and Raspberry Pi Zero W, respectively. These changes will result in a more cost-effective, more stable, and more accurate prototype, resulting in better
