AI-Driven prosthesis for the planet | Enzo Romero | TEDxCalle Aldama

In this powerful and deeply practical talk, Enzo Romero shares how artificial intelligence is transforming the way prosthetics are designed, making them stronger, lighter, and more responsive than ever before. But the real breakthrough isn’t just performance. By using AI to optimize design and combining it with recycled materials, Enzo is proving that high-level innovation doesn’t have to come with high-level cost. What was once expensive and inaccessible can now be scalable, sustainable, and within reach.

This is not about futuristic machines. It’s about restoring movement. About turning waste into possibility. About designing technology that understands both biomechanics and humanity. Enzo Romero is a Peruvian mechatronic engineer, social innovator, and founder of LAT Bionics, where he designs low-cost, high-impact prosthetics to restore dignity, function, and identity.

After losing his own limb as a child, Enzo transformed personal adversity into collective empowerment, creating accessible bionic solutions for communities historically left behind by traditional healthcare. At the intersection of technology, empathy, and design, Enzo is not just building limbs, he’s redefining what’s humanly possible.
