Ha, that is a very cool video. I do not see how it would be useful, but I wouldn't know. Thanks for sharing!

Interesting link! and Its on an extremely small scale, also it grabs the items autonomously. Something impossible for human hands to do on such a scale without mechanical assistance. its defiantly useful......for what, I don't know. Maybe a medical application for removing small blockages in veins and capillaries or something.
