This reminds me of an ultra low cost prosthetic arm that some friends of mine have been working on for a few years.[0] They originally set out to invent something very similar to this hand, but ended up designing and manufacturing low cost prosthetic arms for people in emerging and developing nations instead. It would be fascinating if someone ended up making a fully open source prosthetic arm that could be totally customized to the user's specifications and then fabricated locally for minimal cost. - [0] http://madebybump.org/ http://madebybump.org/
