i-Limb: Lend A Hand (Artificial hands and arms)
Today’s post is about the artificial hand the i-limb. This product has become so lifelike its amazing. People are now able to control the limb almost as though it were the real deal, with far less wires and far less problems. Also the hands articulation is top notch allowing for all sorts of normal movements that previous claw type artificial limbs could only dream of achieving. This product is incredibly expensive however, and as far as I’ve found is basically limited to military uses. I did read that the limb had to be toned down due to it being far to strong. Pretty cool eh? The company that makes it is Touch Bionics which looks like its based out of Spain, I have added their website to the links on the side mostly just cause its so awesome. Check out some www.youtube.com videos of this thing in action!!! Also their living skin products are amazing as well. The stuff of sci-fi movies come to life, this company is far ahead in cutting edge technology. Read the rest of this entry
