A New Horizon for 3-D Printed Prostheses

The custom prosthetics and orthotics market is shaping up to be the next place where 3-D printing is headed. Companies like Stratasys (NASDAQ: SSYS  ) and 3D Systems (NYSE: DDD  ) have increased their exposure to this multi-billion-dollar industry. In this video, Fool.com contributor Steve Heller sits down with The Motley Fool's Erin Miller to discuss why this is another area where 3-D printing is changing the landscape and how it could lead to billions in new revenues.

3D Systems is at the leading edge of a disruptive technological revolution, with the broadest portfolio of 3-D printers in the industry. However, despite years of earnings growth, 3D Systems' share price has risen even faster, and today the company sports a dizzying valuation.
