Fin had a special goal in mind: get his Hero PRO before starting secondary school. And he did, just days before his first day!

Within minutes of his fitting, he was opening a bottle and unlocking his phone.

“I really think this can make my life easier.”

His story made the news, and we’re so proud of him. We’ll be catching up with Fin soon to hear how school’s going! 🎒

From a body-powered hook with Steelers covers to a green Hero PRO named Sapphire. Melissa has always expressed herself with style. 💚

Six years after a car accident, and years after she stopped wearing her old hook, Melissa met Isabel: Upper limb specialist and CPO (Certified Prosthetist Orthotist) based at our North Carolina clinic.

A favorite detail that stuck with Isabel? Melissa always wore the most fun earrings to her appointments, so Isabel started wearing hers too. 🐔🍄

Hear more from Isabel about Melissa's goals and her journey to Sapphire. 🦾

Clara seeing herself in the mirror with her Hero ARM on for the first time. 🥹

She'd already picked it, already unboxed it, but this is the bit that makes it real. Good luck out in the world, Clara! 🦾

With 50+ cover options to choose from, every device can be as unique as the person wearing it. Clara made hers her own in orange. 🧡

What color would you pick?

"I have to be confident for my daughter. You have got to be confident in yourself and have a good soul." - Melissa

Six years ago, an accident meant months of bed rest and losing her hand. Today, Melissa is raising her daughter, building a life with her fiancé, and she's chosen Hero PRO as part of that next chapter. 🦾

A large part of her journey has been about building up her confidence again. After her old prosthesis broke at a football game, she stopped wearing one for years. Going out in public with her new arm, even for something as simple as grocery shopping, has been a big step. Melissa is committed to setting a beautiful example for her family, and we're so grateful she's taking us along for the journey!

Next week, stay tuned to hear more from a familiar face in Melissa's journey, from first consult to delivery day. 💚

Why should functional technology all look the same? We know how important it is for your tech to feel like you!

In the season 2 premiere of Tilly Talks Tech, Ubeboobey talks about building a computer that didn't just work the way she wanted, it looked like her too. It's an idea Open Bionics knows well: technology can be functional, useful, and deeply personal at the same time. 💙 🦾

From cyberdecks to prosthetics, personalization changes the relationship people have with the technology they wear every day and it is so important!

James Rudge is a British paraclimber training for LA 2028, which will be the first time paraclimbing has ever been in the Paralympics. He uses the Hero FLEX in the gym and on adventures just like this!

"When I work out, I feel more balanced and aligned in my posture. The attachments are lightweight, easy to use, and make adaptive training much easier." James said.

This is what the Hero FLEX Ecosystem is built for, and CAF grant applications for support in getting one yourself are currently open! Apply here: https://www.challengedathletes.org/grants/
