YouTube Description:

Two-year-old Emma wanted to play with blocks, but a condition called arthrogryposis meant she couldn't move her arms. So researchers at a Delaware hospital 3D printed a durable custom exoskeleton with the tiny, lightweight parts she needed.

Most of the stuff I've seen being printed with 3D printers were companion cubes or other video game toys. This is awesome!

Also, whoever's cutting onions in my house, please stop.

I'm glad to see 3d printing is really coming into it's own.

I'm not looking to put people out of work but the fact that you can just make a part on demand and print it is fantastic.

(Great sift man. Would promote if I could!)


Why even bring that into it? FFS can't there just be a beautiful, heart wrenching video with a positive outcome? Wtf? Maybe you should look at yourself and ask why you need to bring hate and religion into a sift that has nothing to do with either.

Yeah, because robot arms are way better than real arms.


That's what God thinks too. That's why He gives members of his beloved creation arthrogryposis, polio, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and other such amusements. To show how much He loves us.
