The i-LIMB Hand is the only upper-limb prosthetic device that imitates the true movement and accuracy of the human hand. The i-LIMB has five independently powered digits which give the fingers a lifelike action. The fingers have the ability to bend at each joint and open and close around objects. Designed to provide natural thumb opposition and grasp, it allows the amputee to grasp items with more precision and even if the items are irregularly shaped.

  • @gismoe86 IMDB my friend

  • @gismoe86 Who is the dumbass who never watched Terminator ?

  • cant they put a latex skin glove around it? James Cameron did it better in the 80s 30 years ago

  • Still, thanks for answering.

  • @electrifrying

    Asked ages ago, but afaik the iLimb uses muscle signals to control its operation (so if you'd have lost your hand, it'd use muscle signals from the forearm)

  • how would the person use the hand?
