Hi Cyborgs,

  Perhaps you're more caught up than I am on the prosthetics front, but
here are some cool recent works, which are in my "Neurotechnology"
pinterest board - http://pinterest.com/chunghay/neurotechnology/. Or read
below:

*First Bionic Hand to Feel*
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/a-sensational-breakthrough-the-first-bionic-hand-that-can-feel-8498622.html
  - Anyone know where exactly the sensors are? The article says they're in
the finger tips, palm, and wrist, though the "What's Inside" image shows
only finger sensors.
