emphatical robot hands

Multitasking can be hard,

Some people are great at talking and and waving their arms at the same time but not so good at thinking-but myself I have more trouble using hand gestures while talking and thinking. Its just too much work!

So my idea is a set of robot hands that could be programmed to do choreoghaphed hand gestures during presentations. Once the robot hands have memorised all their new moves, they could be programmed to do their thing on cue, to specific phrases in a presentation.

       Yes but what if you are talking to a figure head, and you are explaining something important, but you are really thinking about how bad this person is...   

       I can only imagine being punched out by a robotic hand, and enduring the first robotic finger salut.
