I put my order in today for a new Cyberhand to replace this 30-year-old model I’m using. Talk about out-dated! The new hand is controlled via an internal wireless receiver/transmitter (Telemetric Link). It includes Force Feedback (efferent and afferent response), which is a huge boon to amputees, I’m sure. I’m thinking along the lines of Han from that American Bruce Lee flick, Enter the Dragon. I don’t know that they provide multiple attachments (e.g. claw hand), but it’s only a matter of time. In the meantime, I think I should be able to crumple a few hands with a firm grasp. Now I need only sever my appendage when the new hand arrives.
