> Have you tried applying your hobby towards reducing the cost of healthcare in America?

This isn't so much a technological problem, but more a politics/incentives issue, as evidenced by the comparably lower cost of healthcare in Europe. Startups might be able to make small reductions in the cost, but truly solving the issue requires re-organising the entire healthcare system.

This wouldn't be particularly useful. In order to use it in humans, you need a ton of quality control and regulatory approvals, and this is where a lot of the manufacturing cost crops up.
