Kiambu Form 4 dropouts develop functional robotic prosthetics

David Gathu and Moses Kiuna’s enthusiasm in robotics and urge to solve problems afflicting people around them have led into robotic prosthesis control field.
The two have achieved a feat only attainable by professional robotic engineers.
They have developed functional robotic prosthetics to help persons living with disabilities lead a normal life. Interestingly, the duo are high school dropouts.

[@BonifaceMutuaDigitalMarketer]

People that focus on academics based on grades can't do these kind of innovations. These can only be done by highly disciplined, dedicated and truly committed self taught individuals.

[@chrisogonas]

These brothers are amazing. They just need funding and partnership to take this to another level and transform it into a great commercial venture. Kudos, folks!

True! If only you & I can be the first with whatever little amount we can afford to support their venture am sure it’d go along way…..
