343 Industries is known for their charity efforts despite the questionable quality of their games. The company is also aware of how much of an influential figure Master Chief himself is. For this reason, 343 has decided on making a few children happy with a collaboration with Limitless Solutions. This collaboration involves prosthetic arms that are based on Master Chief.
The announcement of the project was made through 343’s blog. “343 Industries is proud to announce a collaboration with Limitless Solutions to provide new Halo-themed, 3D-printed prosthetics to be made available to young heroes who – like the Master Chief himself – also routinely and triumphantly beat the odds.”
Look like Master Chief, Keep on Dreaming
The initiative works this way: From 2019 onwards, anyone under support from Limitless Solutions can choose between 2 prosthetic arm designs. The first design is based on the Mk. VI Master Chief armor while the second one is a multiplayer variant. The latter allows for actual options in terms of color customization.
The bionic arm prosthetics are functional, cost-effective, and expressive. “We’re incredibly honored to have the opportunity to collaborate with Limitless Solutions to offer a unique bit of Halo flavor in our shared goal of inspiring heroes.” Said 343 on their blog post.
Limitless Solutions is a non-profit organization which uses 3D printing to create fully functional prosthetic arm designs. You can take a look at their history with “Bionic Children” by going to their website. 343 seems to have looked at an upstart company that has the best intentions rather than some well-established charity.
