Two British children born with partial limbs are the first to be fitted with Spider-Man bionic prosthetics developed with help from Marvel and Disney

Kaden Taylor and Safiyyah Uddin are now able to perform everyday tasks with their specially designed, 3D-printed prosthetics, designed to emulate their favourite superheroes.

The custom-made Peter Parker and Gwen Stacey Spider-Man bionic arms - developed by robotics company Open Bionics -, feature myoelectric sensors which detect muscular contractions generated from muscle groups in the arm.
