London Designer Creates A Prosthetic Third Thumb
The human body is a marvelous design. Almost every single cell in it is there for a reason and almost every organ has a purpose. Evolution has made sure that we focus and enhance what’s necessary in our bodies and reduce the excess. Naturally, there would always be some leftover traits from our predecessors, but that is okay because we are not perfect and those tiny flaws are what makes us human.
When it comes to extremities, we never seem to have enough. We could always use one more hand to hold things and have one more finger to type. Well, guess what? It has finally come true. A London-based designer called Danielle Clode has created a revolutionary third thumb. This artificial limb is 3D printed and is attached to the exterior of our palm, right next to our pinky finger. It is controlled by pressure sensors under our toes and can help us do things more easily.
It’s hard to adjust to everyday chores and duties once you’ve lost a limb so prosthetics have been used for a long time to facilitate the movement of many people. You have to relearn how to do certain things, and the prosthetic is there to help you along the way. Ms. Clode was fascinated by the relationship between the human body and the artificial limbs so she decided to to create this prosthetic that can be used by everyone.
