Woman's experimental bionic hand passes major test

<i>and provides sensory feedback</i><p>This seems like a major achievement that&#x27;s just casually tossed in there with no ceremony or explanation.

I&#x27;ve seen some amazing prosthetics on the internet, I&#x27;ve been seeing them for decades, but none of them get wide use. They&#x27;re either all &quot;experimental&quot; or so insanely expensive that nobody can get them. These kinds of articles can make us feel good about science and hopeful about our future, but the reality is that the people who need these things are basically never going to have one or anything close to one.

This is pretty amazing, but I wonder--how does the body adapt to having a piece of hardware that extends through the skin? Does the body not see this as an open wound? It seems like being permanently impaled with a metal pole.

That is metal af drilled into the bone. Edging closer to cyberpunk<p>This is the kind of stuff I wish I worked on tech wise, I genuinely feel empathy

in a &#x27;perfect&#x27; future: we would cut off our own limbs to get the nimble-tron 5000 with magnetic finger extensions and predictive AI that totally doesn&#x27;t strangle anyone even a little.<p>I joke... but I unironically can&#x27;t wait for replacement limb tech to be that desirable. Imagine the upgrades people would get...

Does it come with attachments?

This is amazing. Soon we&#x27;ll be at the bionic arms featured in iRobot.
