CES 2014: How 3D Printing's Changing Lives In S Sudan
Arthur Goldstuck | Mail & Guardian | January 9, 2014
Not Impossible, the company using 3D printers to provide hands and arms for amputees in South Sudan, has stunned CES with a life-changing initiative.
In 2010, Mick Ebeling, founder of a company called Not Impossible, spearheaded the creation of the Eyewriter, eye-tracking glasses using open-source software, to allow paralysed people to draw and communicate using only their eyes.
Then, in November last year, Not Impossible printed a prosthetic hand that allowed a teenager to feed himself for the first time in two years. But that was just the beginning.
In the past two days, Ebeling has stunned audiences at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas with the story of Project Daniel.
