Here is a three finger assembly connected to an intact index finger. The device is to be used when the middle, ring and pinky finger are missing.

  • WHY ARE DOCTORS NOT GIVING THIS TO PEOPLE WITH MISSING FINGERS???

  • @TheLetter31 Hello, to answer your question doctors do prescribe these to their patients. But, as the inventor of these devices, it is taking several years to inform the medical community that my product exists. This is because many companies compete in the medical field making it difficult for small company's to get their ideas, even good ones, in front of doctors. We are not direct competitors of pharmaceutical company's but do compete for doc's attention. Maybe you can help by telling one : )

  • that could be useful for people who have lost digits. you should patent it

  • @ishouldplayzelda

    It is patented or patent pending in almost every part of the world.

  • Of course I have seen the Terminator; and loved it. But, until now the only moving artificial fingers were on robotic hands. Unfortunately seeing an android in a movie does not help someone when they lose their fingers.

  • '

    how about deaf sign language hand as ILY

  • Very nice, but can you flip a bird with 'em? :P

  • It took 5 years, but I finally have 4 life like finger prostheses from prosthetic labs through the VA. They don't bend like the x-finger, but it's the only prosthetic option the VA allowed and even that was 9,000 dollars, check my channel for a video showing them. I'm at the VA monthly so I demo's my new fingers for the PT, OT, and medical staff so they could see just how good they really are and they loved them (it was the first time they seen them because prosthetics are outsourced)

  • @marquisocfamily if you gave these to the military they could shoot two guns with 1 hand
