Apple Shares 'The Invincibles' Video Highlighting Prosthesis Made With iPhone 14 Pro Camera

[MacRumors]

Apple today shared a new video in a new "Made on iPhone" series that features an adorable puppy that has a prosthesis. Chip was born with limb deformities, and he needed to have two of his legs amputated.

The prosthesis that Chip uses was created by 3DPets, a small business that designs pet prosthetics using the LiDAR Scanner and TrueDepth camera on the iPhone 14 Pro. 3DPets walks through the steps that it takes to create a 3D scan that is then used to create custom hardware.

Apple's video shows Chip wearing his prosthesis to run, swim, and do other dog activities, plus it features other dogs with similar equipment. The video was shot on the iPhone 14 Pro, and it is also part of Apple's Shot on iPhone series.

That is absolutely the best! I love dogs and to see someone assisting with the use of an iPhone to make them whole again is amazing.

Good Job, 3DPets and Apple!

These stories will never get old.

Great use of their product/tech!

Unfortunately, we're likely minutes away from some thoughtful commentary from the jaded, anti-Tim, anti-Apple, anti-joy, "fake dog!" party poopers. 😂

LIDAR is pretty cool and fits right in my hobby field, but i just couldn’t justify buying an entire Pro for it, especially when it was never on the Mini to begin with.

So that dog's prosthesis is made from iphone 14 Pro cameras?

 

[iSwift5]

Really love it.

So that dog's prosthesis is made from iphone 14 Pro cameras?

Yes, but they still didn't shell out the $500 for the height adjustable version.

 

[pacalis]

Honestly, a beautiful story and product use case.

 

[wilef]

I'm only seeing one leg amputated, not two.

 

[stainless]

Lovely story, can't deny it pulls heartstrings and works on the tear ducts...

Do we know what software they used to scan the dog?

 

[mgmiter]

Chip or Trip?

 

[Berti10]

Ah, right on time. Apple once again needs to get rid of their current inventory. Keynote is just days away

Now why did MKBHD upload a video about this at the exact same time as Apples ad… 🤔

 

[DogHouseDub]

Must be some dust in here...stupid allergies. [sniffle sniffle]

 

[TVreporter]

Who is cutting onions in here? 😢

 

[Unregistered 4U]

I figured if a Camera can be used to make this, surely I could use the camera to make a scarf.

I didn’t even know where to put the yarn. So… no go.

 

[LeeW]

Amazing. To be honest I would step over most humans in need to help a dog in need.

 

[dmr727]

Wonderful story. Absolutely love dogs, and I don't deserve mine. ❤️❤️

Wait a min! How does she knows he sees himself as any other "normal" dog?

Cause he told her.

Now why did MKBHD upload a video about this at the exact same time as Apples ad… 🤔

Yup, I was wondering too. The placement of the Mac Studio and the two Studio displays also felt kinda strange, when I first watched the MKBHD video and afterwards I saw in the comments that Apple dropped the video at the exact same time. Has an ode taste…

 

[vicviper789]

The dog is clearly CGI !


But for real, what app are they using to make prosthetics? I have a few ideas in mind for myself.

As some one who grew up with pets, had many pets in life it’s not hard. They may not speak but you can see when they are normal, dull, depressed or excited.
