Bionic Arm : Best replacement for your limbs

Bionic Arm is a new technology which gives hope to the people who lost their hands in accidents or in another way same like Bionic Eye. And it goes out of the labs and a woman named Claudia Mitchell got the first chance to wear a bionic arm after she lost her left arm in a motorcycle accident. The Bionic arm is mostly like the real arm which allows normal motion almost same as that of your real hand. You can do simple tasks like picking up a cup, fist the arm using this artificial arm. It will work according to the instructions directed by your brain. 

Even if someone lost his or her limbs the brain will not stop sending signals to the neural which are directing to hands and legs. So the fact is that they have living nerves in their limbs. This helps doctors to attach the remaining nerves with these prosthetics. These neural's are connected to the nerves situated in the chest and there is a sensor which detects the signals which are received at these nerves. Thus a person can do even the most complex task using this prosthetic because several sensors are managed to monitor several nerves.

Some companies like Touch Bionics already started making such arms called i-limb ultra commercially which have more power management and complex abilities. Another one named Handie supports replacing the parts of the prosthetic hand by 3D printing except motors which if need some replacement. Surely this will be great achievement for human which helps people get a new ray of hope for whom who lost their limbs in war or accidents.
