Steve Williams Documents Development Of Mechanical Limbs

Jul 30, 2015

Ever hooked yourself up to a mechanical arm and have it mimicking your movements as you move your limb? Professional photographer Steve Williams has, and he report that it’s (not so surprisingly) a very weird feeling! A short while back, Steve was asked by Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella to shoot both video and stills during his visit at University of Central Florida (UCF). Here, Nadella met with the students responsible for the “Limbitless Solutions” – a group that is developing low cost artificial limbs for children through the use of student designs and 3-D printers provided by the school’s mechanical engineering lab.

Take a look below at photographs taken from the visit, and to see Steve using one of the mechanical limbs himself!
