Two years ago, Paul McCarthy began searching for an inexpensive yet functional prosthetic hand for his son Leon, who was born without fingers on one of his hands. McCarthy came across a video online with detailed instruction on how to use a 3-D printer to make a prosthetic hand for his son. Michelle Miller reports.
wallah cest rincé
Catalytic Innovation in action!
Des gens de la FDS par là? ahahaha
They named that The Frankenstein Hand
I've been living without my left hand for my entire life, I'm soon gonna get an electronic prosthesis. I honestly can't wait.
Pals letter Anybody understand larger than this result?
Been missing my right hand since I was 9yro I wish I could get one but that takes money that ssi don't give me smh
Charlotte foss doesn't know what she's missing
I bet faith Brock appreciated that hand 😉
Where's this kids parents
Awesome story!
Is he dead yet… If not to bad
If his dad really loved him he would have just gotten the real prosthetic hand for him
how do i get one for my child he is 3 years old please please please reply me thanks
I'm happy for the child and the thousands of people in these situations, Greetings
Who's watching in 2015?
3D printers are amazing. I wish they get cheaper so I could make a lot of parts.
Alright found this year's project!!!
I hope this helps to prove healthcare costs are a sham and we're just paying more to put money into the pockets of big business and governement. A prosthetic hand that came from the healthcare complex would cost ten times more. There are some surgeons who don't take insurance and operations in their clinics cost as little as one tenth of what a hospital would charge. Bureaucracy and greed are killing us, literally.
Howaaa this is so cool
this guy is father of the year
Yeah!!, Do a Hellboy hand
we are so advanced that we can literally print replacement limbs for pocket change, the future is now
На самом деле, это еще придумал китаец для своего сына, и без всяких 3D-принтеров делал…
Awesome, WOW !!!!!!!!
I don't care about ads! YUNOSTOPDEM!
More like $350 Alejandra. And you probably could even find someone with a 3D printer to make it for you. But if you have to buy your own printer, that's still a lot less expensive than new prosthetics needed throughout a lifetime. I think this and the new wheelchairs that replace traditional ones are two of the most important inventions for years to come. Absolutely life altering.
Damn that's amazing, holy crap!!!!! Imagine the possibilities of these kind devices and prohesis. If they just develope such devices just to cover your whole hand from elbow, even you did still have your hand and then you could just set strenght increase to it. Man could start to build pyramids with their bare hands
Yeah! Science, bitch!!
Usually the prosthetic would cost like 30K, I heard this was like 1k or less =O
Brilliant
Good for all involved!
