Create fake fingers from 3D printers

9-year-old Kylie Wicker, Illinois, was born without fingers on his left hand. But thanks to 3D printing, Kylie was able to drive herself with her fake fingers.

Jerome Wicker, the father of a 9-year-old girl, accidentally learned that 3D printers could create prosthetic devices useful for people with disabilities.

After attending the Boyland Catholic School and presenting the situation, the students of the graphic design class accepted the offer of Jeromy Wicker. They agreed to create Kylie's forged fingers at a relatively cheap price: "The cost of Kylie to pay for those fingers is $ 5, of which $ 1 is the cost of plastic materials, and the other $ It's for the knobs in the knuckles.

Fake hats helped Kylie do things she had not done before or made it very difficult. "I can now ride my bike," she said.

3D printers are a technological trend that promises to create a lot of useful products for human life. In addition to the ability to print ordinary items, 3D printers can also produce food (pizza, artificial meat) or even build a house.
