So, I've always wondered why they didn't do this with prosthetics as we see it in movies all the time. When I thought about the complications I thought about infections, and issues with the skin growing around the artificial implant.

Prosthetics grafted directly to the skeleton and controlled by a man/machine interface.

Just saw this video, and I have to think that of all the video's I've seen about prosthetics this is the most advanced, and capable limb yet. The hand is probably the most complicated and difficult limb to replace. The range of motion from the fingers, wrist, and elbow create a limb that is incredibly capable.

Watching this guy use this arm is cool and gives me hope that I might actually see prosthetics that can replicate the lost limb with 100% functionality in my lifetime.
