3D printing prosthetics is changing the way those born with missing limbs or who have lost them due to accident, illness or war live their lives. The technology is in use today and brings life improving benefits to some of those least able to access traditional prosthetics. Furthermore, researchers are working on projects that will extend the opportunity to many others and also advance the field. These projects blend 3D printing, robotics and medicine and show how 3D printing can provide a unique solution to a real problem.
