Upgrade Your Hand With This Extra Thumb

Have you ever thought about using an extra thumb? Perhaps you could play the guitar faster, or hold an extra tool as you continue to work? Well think no more, as Dani Clode has invented just that. We took a trip down to the University of Cambridge, where she collaborates with neuroscientist Tamr Makin to unravel the mysteries of how the third thumb influences the brain. Dani envisions a future where augmentation becomes a reality and the third thumb serves as a tool to enhance the capabilities of regular individuals. She also explores the impact this additional thumb can have on daily tasks and cognitive functions. We explore the potential applications of the third thumb, by getting our filmmaker Stuart to test it out and see how it affects his brain by putting him in an MRI to test its functions. This is the story of Dani Clode’s Third Thumb and the transformative potential it holds for the future of tech! #Technology #Thumb #Neuroscience 00:00 Intro 00:20 What is the Third Thumb? 00:54 Where did the idea come from? 02:28 Letting the crew try the Third Thumb 04:08 The science behind the Third Thumb 05:10 Vision of the Third Thumb 05:49 Do our crew have any brain activity? 06:40 Dani the rockstar 07:30 Bloopers Follow Dani Clode on Instagram: Check out Dani’s website: Keep up with her work: Got a story idea for us?
