Didrick Medical have developed the X-Finger. It's is the world’s first active-function artificial finger assembly designed specifically for partial finger amputees. The device allows users to regain complete control of the flexion and extension movements of an artificial finger in a self-contained device. An optional silicone sheath can be fitted over the mechanics to reveal a realistic looking finger that was never lost.
The Xfinger is not powered, but rather relies on the movement of the remaining muscle. However the simplicity and no need for power is what makes the device so comfortable and natural.
