When I read news like this, I begin to think that we are not so far away from the future depicted in DeusEx: Human Revolution .

I have been blown away by the robotic hand, I could sit and watch it all day. I feel like the Terminator. […] Prior to this I used prosthetic limbs provided by (England’s National Health Service) which were horrible.

The geek in me almost instantly thinks about Luke’s mechanical hand or the famous scene in Terminator II . Yes, I might exaggerate a bit. But the invention of this prosthetic seems to me like a real breakthrough in robotics/bionics and also seems to improve it’s wielders quality of life.
