Myoelectric Prosthetic Arm

  • Unique Paper ID: 171439
  • PageNo: 3935-3940
  • Abstract:
  • Our project addresses the high cost of traditional myoelectric prosthetics by developing an affordable, 3D-printed prosthetic arm using readily available EMG sensors, the cost effectiveness can be seen regarding the cost of Material, Sensor and the Shipping cost, this innovative approach significantly reduces manufacturing costs and allows for custom-fitted, user-friendly prosthetics tailored to individual needs. By democratizing access to advanced prosthetic technology, we aim to enhance the independence and quality of life for individuals with upper limb loss, particularly in low-income regions. Our open-source design fosters global collaboration, setting a new standard in affordable assistive technologies and inspiring further advancements in the field.
