Prosthetics for children are costly and those families who do get them often find that children don't use them for very long for a variety of reasons, including weight and ease of use. Limitless Solutions has developed technology to create personalized bionics for people with disabilities at an affordable cost. This will be a prospective study over a 14-month duration with clinical evaluations throughout. Limitless Solutions will provide prosthetics and training system for study subjects free of charge.
