– A 3D printed bionic hand can be made to measure thanks to engineers at WMG, University of Warwick and a collaboration of other companies.
.
– The 3D printed hand incorporates muscle sensors to control an articulated thumb, enabling it to function similar to a human hand.
.
– It can be made to measure in 10 hours in a choice of colours.
