Japanese Robot Hand Crushes Cans, Gives Dean Kamen the Finger


Researchers from the Tokyo Institute for Technology have developed the first bionic hand strong enough to crush a can. I know, it's surprising that all the robot hands we've seen before have been so weinerish, but now you know.

The above video might not be as impressive seeming as Dean Kamen's bionic arm, seeing as that was actually attached to a person and not sitting on a desk, but that video is all blurry and stuff. At least these guys are putting it all out there for us to judge.
