Comment on “Bionic Girl” Debuts New Wireless Hands That Even Work When Detached From the Main Prosthetic

You know what, wireless prosthetics could be useful even for those of us who have both hands.
We can basically go full General Grievous and do so many things at once

Unfortunately the limitations there are probably in the brain not the limb. For example, can you competentely do two things at once with each of your hands?

Any random individual? Maybe not. But one man bands exist and are completely reliant on this concept.

Fair, although I was more referring to fully separate tasks, one could argue a one man band is still broadly doing things in sync and broadly the same mental task.
It is a valid point that it could be learned with enough practice and dedication, but I think going above two would be exponentially harder.

Fair, but do you have to manipulate them at the same time? For example, additional prosthetic arms can help you carry your bags, or hold something else. This doesn’t require much brain power to do, and is still very useful.

So I don’t need to cut off an arm for an upgraded?
