Panthers linebacker gets 3D-printed brace for Super Bowl
During the first quarter of the NFC Championship game nearly two weeks ago, Carolina Panthers All-Pro linebacker Thomas Davis broke his arm making a tackle. Immediately after the game, Davis said he had every intention of playing in Sunday's Super Bowl, and it looks like he'll be able to do so with the help of a 3D-printed brace. Whiteclouds, a 3D printing company, engineered the brace in about 8 hours last week, after receiving a 3D scan of Davis' forearm. What's more, when he takes the field this weekend, Whitclouds says it will be "the first time an NFL player has used a 3D-printed piece of equipment on the field."
