Hans Alexander Huseklepp has designed a prosthetic arm that looks like something out of a sci-fi movie. 

The ‘Immaculate’ concept prosthetic is fully functional, connecting to the central nervous system of the wearer. As well as making a superior prosthetic which has more flexibility than a human arm, Huseklepp has managed to turn it into a fashion statement.

The traditional angle has been to make artificial limbs look as realistic as possible, but this model throws conservatism out of the window - and it looks amazing.

These support products have gone from being purely functional to become objects of fashion and identity. Furthermore it turns it into an object of beauty instead of a technological object masquerading as a natural arm. (playmedesign)

Since futuristic fashion is so chic right now anyway, it's an incredible concept. I really love this.
