Project Description
Each year over 9,000 children in the United States suffer a traumatic injury that results in an amputation. Devils Prosthetics is a 3rd year EPICS project focused on innovating affordable yet functional upper-limb prosthetics for these children. We are currently designing and testing a prototype for a 3D printed transradial prosthetic that will be capable of basic hand positions controlled by electromyographic (EMG) sensors. Future iterations will work on perfecting these capabilities as well as developing design and manufacturing systems. In addition to our technical work, the team is currently working towards becoming a venture.
