Break Your Leg

1. What kind of technology is being discussed?



Biotechnology is the technology being discussed. More specifically, it is about bionic hands.

2. What benefits does bionic hands bring to people?

It helps people who have lost the use of their hand regain their hand function. It can help people who were born with no hand, lost the use of their hand. It can help soldiers who have lost their hands in combat. It can also increase the self-esteem of disabled people. It also has added features, such as being able to twist your wrist.

3. Are there any ethical problems with this technology?

The use of prosthetic limbs is purportedly dangerous because if advanced enough, normal people with normal hands. However, I believe that it is perfectly normal to be wanting to be the best that you can be. Using this new technology, I believe that humans can do more things and that we can have more potential if we all have better brains in the future. :))
