Description

This lecture presents the development of a modular hand prosthesis for a 6-year-old boy who enjoys skiing and biking but faces difficulties due to a missing hand. The prosthesis, created using 3D printing, consists of three main parts: the locking mechanism, the palm, and the fitting part. The locking mechanism ensures safety by detaching in case of excessive force, while the modular design allows for future expansion. The lecture also discusses the cost-effective production process and the importance of safety testing before implementation of new modules.
