He could actually feel his daughter's hand

First patient in the US was Army Sergeant Garrett Anderson. He could actually feel his daughter's hand, with the touch sensing that was in here. He couldn't do that with any other prosthetic hand because he was worried about crushing their hands. - Aadeel Akhtar

When we're doing something like shaking your hand, the fingers are taking the shape of your hand, conforming to that object very much like a natural hand. And so that keeps it from really, really squeezing very hard on it. - Aadeel Akhtar

This is the first bionic hand on the market to give users touch feedback. Do you feel that vibration coming through? That way our users know when they've come into contact with an object. - Aadeel Akhtar
