Frequently asked questions

How is a bionic hand controlled?

Electrodes in the socket read the signals of your forearm or upper-arm muscles; the hand opens, closes and switches grips according to these signals.

Can children get a bionic hand?

In many cases yes, depending on age and size. We assess each child individually.

Is a bionic hand waterproof?

Most bionic hands are water-resistant but not for swimming. We explain the limits of each model.
