CYBORG OF THE WEEK: TWO EXTRA ARMS

by Hazed

Following my story recently about the drummer with the robotic arm, here’s another cyborg arm story, but this time with double the fun.

If two hands are better than one, then think what you could do with four arms. Researchers from MIT have come up with a pair of wearable robotic arms that, instead of replacing missing limbs, give the wearer an extra set.

The researchers have come up with two models, one which the extra limbs sprouting from the shoulders, and the other with limbs extending from the waist.

Watch videos of the extra robotic arms here.

Very useful!
