Man with bionic hand can now tie his own shoelaces after new upgrade

Man with bionic hand can now tie his own shoelaces after new upgrade | Mail Online: "The bionic man fitted with a high-tech robotic hand yesterday showed off his latest upgrade which is so advanced he can now tie his shoelaces again.

Stronger: After a recent accident involving a runaway dog which left the 53-year-old missing several robot fingers, designers have also reinforced the limb with stainless steel and titanium

Nigel Ackland from Royston, Cambridgeshire, has had his Terminator-like mechanical limb since last November, but it has now been upgraded to make it more sensitive."
