Today, there's a relatively simple slip-on bionic appendage that this highschool kid with a congenital defect that resulted in a malformed right hand just got. Even something as basic as the set-up he's got here allows for a pretty amazing expansion of his freedoms, if you think about it; typified by the simple act of holding a glass in his left hand and pouring a cup of water with his new bionic accessory.
I couldn't embed the video, but here's a link to the Gawker article with the video: http://tv.gawker.com/5592972/meet-the-courageous-18+year+old-with-a-brand-new-bionic-hand
