Kaylene Kau, she writes:"
For this project we were pushed by our Professor to push the boundaries of current upper-limb prosthetic design. Through extensive research I found that the prosthetic functioned as an assistant to the dominant functioning hand. The prosthetic needed to be both flexible and adjustable in order to accommodate a variety of different grips."

Wow, this looks very promising!  The functional design is much simpler than the traditional "five fingers" model, which could make it easier to operate for amputees who have also lost a lot of muscle in their arms.  I hope this catches on!
