This robotic extra thumb can be controlled by moving your toes

Next time on pointless objects made:
A glass that changes in size so you could drink as little as you feel like

Where do I sign up for this extra thumb? I'll buy ten!

It's a little mindless. The human brain is such that it can't fully control two hands. That's why we are left or right-handed. Just imagine fully integrating this extra finger in your automatisms. You flex your fingers and your toes to grab something. What if you're standing on a slope? What if you're moving, running? More of it, why would you stop at sixth finger? Why not ten?

YES

Now all the accidents happen with the poor chopping skills I'll bet.

Now we can do left to right hand shakes! I love the future.

This is humans accelerating their own evolution.

This is an unfortunately mature comment section.

Pro: you get an extra thumb to do cool tricks

Con: your brain faces existential crisis on whether it knows how to truly control your hands

Humans: Sign me UP!

Lay your dominant hand on top of your non-dominant hand, both palms up, thumbs out, and note how easy it is to adapt to a two-thumbed hand this way.

Then wonder why they mapped the sensors to both big toes (used for balance) instead of just the non-dominant hand's thumb.

The borg

I wonder if i can buy it?

Can your hand split in half so you can wield two lightsabers? 😂

Ah, yes, the time of the WORT WORT WORT has come.

I'm your fan from Russia. I am interested in the development of prostheses. I wanted to ask you if this technology will be in production and how much will it cost?

I am pretty sure the participant stirring the tea with one hand is from the subcontinent.

Until sombody "hacks" your additional bodyparts and uses them against yourself or others.

Always wanted to learn to play the guitar, maybe now it's a little easier with thè extra thumb! 😂

So can I buy it

Ok.

Note how there was no audio when the guy is playing guitar.

ford pines would lose his mind

It’d be interesting to raise a child with one of these so they grow up and not have any confusion about it

Alright where do I get this?

Where can I buy one

Would this mean that the brain will slowly lose some function of the fingers if used for example a year?

I lost the use of my 4th and 5th digits on my right (dominant) hand when I had my arm half-way ripped off while enlisted in the US Army (27 yrs ago). I would buy this in a heartbeat!!

Finally I can hold things like General Grievous

That would be great for people with only one hand.

if only they could detect ur brain that we're controlling our non existent third thumb cos i do that alot

Hecc the cost to my brain I want 2 of these

just add the prosthetic thumb to the arm nerve and be done with it

Really? When I learn new things, my brain physically changes? Wow and I thought the brain is a metaphysical concept.

Holly Molly, "Positive Future!"

Now GF would not say you have shorter😂

I think two extra arms is better. I’d buy that.

While I admire the technical skills required to create this, I hardly see any actual use for it. It's a novelty.
