Is the control for this violin bow pre programmed?

No. Nothing is programmed.

Myoelectric arm. The elbow has a motor controlled by contracting muscles in her shoulder. She has customized it to play the violin.

She is also moving her torso to achieve some of the motion.

She's playing. Not a computer.

impressive.

At any rate, she would still be playing with her left hand even if the right was programmed.
