By Olesya Yermakova specially for the Avatar Technology Digest / Geek Picnic 2015 / Moscow City (Russia) Nicolas Huchet lives in Rennes and uses his myoelectric prosthesis every day. He had a work accident in April 2002 and lost his hand. He currently faces the problem of aquisition of a poly- finger prosthesis. In October 2012, he discovered fablab in his city and asked whether it is possible to make a robot hand. When told about 3D printing and open sources (arduino, Thingiverse, InMoov etc.), he became aware of the possibilities that citizens have to change things and he decided to act.
