6 Comments

This is so amazing! I applaud Touch Bionics for pulling their focus from large, full prosthetic goals towards smaller, useful ones that help a group of people that had been almost forgotten.

amazingly cool technology.

Finally! Now I can destroy myself freebording and not worry about the future of my body :)

Again, I am impressed, amazed and in awe with the talent of my fellow human beings. Particularly, those who choose a vocation devoted to improving the quality of life of those who are less fortunate or disadvantaged by issues out of their control. To enable a person to reach their full potential through mobility is a wonderment that I can only begin to comprehend as an able bodied person. If I were to lose the hands that support my work, what would I do? Oh the strength of some. Lets rejoice and applaud these wonderful contributing people in the research and medical environment. Well done!
