To extend the capacity of the project we are incorporating the use of artifical muscles which will replace the string pulled by the servo motor in our current design.  We have been working on fabricating artifical muscles and testing their quality and longevity.

The overall goal of our project is to design a custom specific, affordable, and lightweight myoelectric prosthetic fingers for a specific patient Our patient’s needs include: Index, middle, ring, little prosthetic fingers, and cosmetic thumb

Real-time prototype demonstration showing the prototype replicating the movement in real-time of Adriana’s hand which moves at from rest position to 45 degrees and 90 degrees.
