Title Prosthetic Limb
Supervisor Rodolfo Coutinho
Description The goal of our project is to design and create a functional prosthetic device for amputees. The prosthetic device will use software and signal processing to read the residual electrical muscle signals in the amputated limb and control the mechanical prosthetic. The artificial limb will be 3D printed and should allow for features such as grip feedback and analytics, and should be capable of being calibrated for the specific amputated limb. Additionally, a control system loop will be implemented in order to improve the prosthetic’s response.
