The X-Finger: the first artificial fingers
- 9 years ago
The laboratory Didrick Medical has developed the X-finger, a finger prosthesis can replace a real organic finger. It is a mechanism that is both simple and ingenious that requires no battery, it uses the body's muscles over the remaining part of the amputated finger. A system of articulated artificial tension transforms the natural movement of the artificial knuckle, simulating the movement of a complete finger.
Note that the user of the prosthesis found functional mobility that allows it to type on a keyboard again, play golf or nose picking. The X-finger weighs less than 10 grams and about 30 grams once covered with artificial skin made of silicone.
