#2 Avatar Technology Digest / 3D Printing, Cyberlegs, Robot Atrias, Molecule-Making Machine etc.

A very warm welcome to Avatar Technology Digest. And here are the top stories of the last week. As always we start our Digest with incredible news in Technology, Medical Cybernetics and Artificial Intelligence. 

1) You'll see a lot more instances of robotic arms in the news, but it doesn't mean high-tech prostheses for the lower limbs don't exist. Italian scientists from Cyberlegs project have presented their work to public last Monday.
