ProDigits bionic fingers

The ProDigits bionic fingers goes one up (or is it five up with four fingers and a thumb) over a standard prosthesis, thanks to its ability to grab and pick up objects in a totally new manner? It can be controlled via myoelectric sensors which register muscle signals from the palm or the remnant finger, with the alternative of a pressure sensitive switch from a force resistive sensor. The ProDigits bionic fingers will offer an unprecedented degree of functionality for folks who wear them, and this is a step in the right direction towards Anakin’s bionic arm.
