Why created a 6th finger and not just create a prothetic for the already existing thumb that some people may need to replace? That would be like creating a 3rd ear where there are already medical procedures for the first 2 in the first place

Well this could very easly be adapted for someone without a thumb. Just put it on the other side of the hand and flip some things in the code

The human body is at its peak so adding or removing might not be the brightest thing to do, even if it was just extensions, that’s my opinion.

It’s good for people who have limited abilities due to disabilities. Also it might be beneficial as a tool for certain tasks. Like underwater swimming.

May 10, 2025 at 12:20 am
@Kyle-nm1kh as a left for a right hand? no, if it were for disables it wouldn’t have been a “Second” thumb also for swimming you don’t have a solid ground to control that thumb and the structure of it would fall due to currents

I wonder if it’ll ever be possible to add new controls to the brain instead of repurposing things like your toes
@Kyle-nm1kh
May 9, 2025 at 11:02 pm
Well it’s possible, but if you do it through a wired connection (nerve endings and neurons) then it might be limited to the human Anatomy already in place. It’s more likely there would be a wireless connection (brain waves) to activate the controls, but I’m not sure exactly how much control you’d have.
