A man from New Zealand was able to get the sensation of having fingers when using a hand prosthesis, created by Touch Robotics. The design, which is made of a motor and two joints, replaced the sensation of the three fingers he lost in a fishing accident three years ago, and allowed him to complete tasks such as holding a coffee cup and writing his name.
