Company Creates Disney-Themed Bionic Prosthetic Hands for Young Amputees
As part of the Disney Accelerator program, powered by Techstars, the Open Bionics company created a wonderful line of Disney-themed bionic prosthetic hands for young amputees. The creative limbs, designed in collaboration with Lucasfilm’s ILMxLAB, feature Tony Stark‘s iconic Iron Man glove, Elsa‘s hand from Frozen, and a lightsaber-themed Star Wars fist.
“Now kids can get excited about their prosthetics. They won’t have to do boring physical therapy, they’ll train to become heroes. They’re not just getting medical devices, they’re getting bionic hands inspired by their favorite characters.”
