I grew obsessed with Lego Technic, a more advanced range, and how to use it to build more delicate structures. Bythe age of nine, I had fashioned my first prosthetic arm(义肢)using Lego Technic – a simple box that perfectly _____________________________________________________________________________________________
accommodated my right arm. _______________________
This early creation sparked my drive for further exploration. Years later, I developed another prosthetic arm that
I called the MK-1, which had fingers, a motor, a pressure sensor, a movable elbow joint, and a grabber capable of
picking things up.
Before constructing it, I had already decided against traditional prosthetics. Not because they were ineffective,
but because playing with Lego did significantly improve my dexterity, helping me adapt to my condition. However,
a more frustrating reason was that prosthetics were too expensive. My parents and I had looked into getting one a
few years earlier, only to be discouraged by the prohibitive price. So, I concluded that I might not need one because I
was managing well without. Nevertheless, the joy of creating prosthetics with Lego remained, and I continued
making them purely for the fun of it.
As the years passed, my creations evolved from MK-1 to the more advanced and comfortable MK-V. It featured
a control unit that could send and receive orders from sensors on the arm to the motors, with cables that contract like
muscles.
One day, a couple with their eight-year-old son, who lost both arms in an accident, reached out to me after
learning about my creations. Short of money, they couldn’t afford well-functioning prosthetics. “Daniel,” the father
earnestly asked, “we were wondering if you could possibly help build a set of prosthetics for our son.”
