3D Printed Prosthetic Hand that Can Learn Users' Movements
A group of students at the University of Illinois has come up with a 3D Printed prosthetic hand that can learn a user's movement. It is capable of self programming itself and then taking on different types of movements and grips. It can use a 3 finger grip, a closed hand, fine pinch and more. It takes only a couple minutes to program it to an individual, and the creators hope to bring these to developing nations. Costing less than $280 to create, provides for potential in countries where $40,000 myoelectric hands are simply not feasible. The team is still developing the technology and hope to include feedback sensors and more. Read and see more at: http://3dprint.com/22126/learnable-3d-printed-hand/
