Welcome to Disability Awesome. Each week, this post will feature a person or persons with mental and / or physical disabilities who are doing awesome things! As someone with an disability, I love it when others when disabilities do great things!
At 15 months old, Tilly Lockey lost both hands to meningitis—but today, she’s pioneering the future of bionic prosthetics with the Hero Arm Pro. These 3D-printed, AI-driven hands don’t just mimic movement—they learn from her muscle signals, letting her type, pour drinks, and even make them crawl across tables remotely. A TEDx speaker, model, and disability advocate, Tilly proves that advanced bionic hands aren’t just tools; they’re extensions of human potential. Her mission? To show the world that disability doesn’t limit possibility—it redefines it.
