Developed by Shinichi Furuya and associates at the Sony Computer Science Laboratories in Tokyo, this exoskeletal hand was originally designed to help train the muscles of those with limited use of their digits. Well now they’ve discovered it can also help take accomplished pianists to the next level. Heck yeah,
This is a video of pet octopus Marty (who I believe is an Octopus bimaculatus, aka Verrill’s two-spot octopus) opening a closed jar just moments after being exposed to one for the first time. That’s impressive. How we knew to turn it is beyond me, and certainly beyond my roommate,
