The last time we saw Bebionic's V3 prosthetic hand in action was in a sterile promotional video showing it doing everything from buttering up a slice of bread, to manipulating a Rubik's Cube.

Suction power's become an important bullet point when it comes to selling vacuums. But what really matters to consumers is how easy they are to empty. The annoying bags of yesteryear have been replaced with easy to use trapdoor canisters, which now see further improvement with Electrolux's new UltraCaptic cleaners that compress the dust into an easily disposable disc.
