Artificial hand just around the corner

Many people remember the scene of Star Wars, when a well-known hero attaches a new biomechanical arm after Darth Vader chops off his own. Italian scientists claim that such prostheses are just around the corner. Watch the video:



In short, the story is as follows: the guy in the accident was torn off his hand, he decided not to give up, and went to look for where he would be attached the same, or at least similar, search led him to a research center, where he got into the program by itself - research necessary subject), electrodes were implanted under the skin to the motor and sensitive bundles of nerves and they began to train the “arm” - it was necessary to control the prosthesis with the help of thought. At first it was difficult, how can you move a hand that does not exist? She had to imagine and after a while began to turn out.
The studies have not yet been completed, but when the project comes to market implementation, the guy will be presented with a new hand.
