MAKER PORTFOLIO

LIMBS WITH LOVE

[2016]

Prosthetic Prototyping

I assembled an Openbionics hand as a first step in prototyping prosthetic limbs for Limbs with Love. The fingers are moved by linear actuators which are controlled by an Almond PCB board (programmed using Arduino). Here is a video showing the hand in action. One of the fingers was not working because a connection in the Almond board was malfunctioning.
