Prosthesis allows a person to drive your car

Tuesday, December 8, 2009

This may sound with style robots, but is a step in prosthetic technology. Christian Kandlbauer lost both arms in an accident two years ago and was given prosthesis on both sides. Now, German companies and Paravan Otto Black have teamed up to create a system that allows Christian drive a car. Paravan specializes in the manufacture of modified cars for those with disabilities, and with the participation of Otto Black, Christian's car has been specially created to be connected to the completion of remaining nerves in the amputation site. Now Christian Kandlbauer can drive a car, in fact, has passed the driving test and driving himself to go to work every day.
