Meet Dan the Gamer with the “Deus Ex” Bionic Arm, Empowered by Predator

Acer-Manny_Retired

Red Bull just released the first episode of the original series PRISM, a mini-documentary that follows fanatics of gaming and eSports powered by Predator.

The first episode is about Daniel Melville, a gamer who was born without a right arm. Daniel spent his whole life wearing unsightly prosthetics but has now become the designer and proud owner of the “Jensen Arm” — the world’s first prosthetic based on a video game character: Adam Jensen from Deus Ex. Daniel’s gameplay is powered by Predator. He controls his bionic arm with muscle movements. It’s sensitive enough to play video games with the fully customizable Cestus 500 mouse. Cutting-edge performance is delivered by the Orion 5000 rig, while Daniel uses the world’s first G-Sync HDR monitor, the Predator X27, for gaming at ultra-high 4k resolution.

Pretty amazing, I had no idea Acer has a hand in the prosthetic market. Sorry, bad pun there. It really is amazing what's been accomplished in terms of movement, muscle control, and overall dexterity!
