One is the 3D printer right now. Another is internet technology.

The other is good will. You put these three together

and you really got a very powerful solution.

[Yeah! Alright!]

Assistant>> Thank you sir.

Myers>> So... we're e-NABLE.

That's the name of our group.

This is a 3D printer. This is a Makerbot.

They can print out just about anything.They're kinda like a tube

of toothpaste. They layer on top

of each other, and make a three dimensional image.

These things can be printed out for

less than fifty dollars when a prosthetic usually cost about forty

thousand dollars, so...

and all the plans are available online. Open access.

Anybody that can get access to a three-dimensional printer, can have a hand.

Schull>> From the measurements we can choose

the style of the hand, the model. This is the famous

"Cyborg Beast" with the the day-old

experimental, RIT arm design.

And once you choose the features that you want

it goes off to the printer... and about three hours later it comes out of the

printer.

And then there's a couple of hours of assembly, but we're working on easy assemble positions.

And the next thing you know you've changed a life.

But in truth she does not even have to come here. We have an online community

We can take pictures through the mail. We can generate the hands. We can model them.

We can print them in her neighborhood. She can take the models and go to a

public library, or go to

Staples... or go to a school 3d printer...

or ask one of our 500 volunteers

to run it off. To print it. Then she can try it.

She can send us some video from a smartphone of what pinches and what needs

adjusting.

We will go through the process again. This is only five dollars worth of materials.

So what's the big deal?
