The original i-LIMB Hand was a bionic arm that was able to connect to the users limb and be controlled through the nerves in whatever remains of the human arm. i-LIMB’s latest version goes by the name of i-LIMB Pulse.
Pulse has new technology built into it such as pulsing grip strength, software-enabled grip patterns and robust aluminium features for improved strength. No, you won’t be able to go to the gym and lift 500 pounds with one finger, but you will be able to lift enough for everyday life. If you don’t believe it’s good, ask one of the 1,200 patients around the world.
