3D printing technology can do many things, but one of the best, in my opinion, is inspiring people to make the world a better place. We first heard about 21-year-old engineer Easton LaChappelle back in 2014, a year after he had the chance to demonstrate his 3D printed robotic prosthetic to then-President Barack Obama at the White House Science Fair. LaChappelle was working with robotics experts at NASA's Johnson Space Center to refine his prosthetics, in hopes that they could eventually help amputees who couldn't afford high-cost standard prostheses. LaChappelle was almost out of money and resources when Microsoft learned about the arm he was making for 9-year-old Momo, and the fact that he was using Microsoft products, like an Xbox Kinect to take 3D scans of residual limbs and a Surface to run AutoCAD, to develop the arm. After visiting his studio, Microsoft offered to help him complete the project...and film the process. Together with Seattle-based Belief Agency, Microsoft has just launched a three-part documentary series about LaChappelle and Momo.
