The Process

Getting it together:

We 3D printed the original design from Youbionic and assembled it as follows:

Progress:

We had to add in "rings" under each finger in order for the patient to have a better grip and feel more comfortable wearing the tool. This was done in AutoCad, a tool for 3D modeling and design.

Ergonomic Design in Progress

Now that's better! The patient will be able to have a firm grip over the Exo-Remedy. Not only this, but the tool will be able to function more accurately while reporting the correct angles of where the routine has stopped for each finger. We also added a strap that wrap around the palm. There is more progress to be done in order to make the tool more comfortable, but for testing purposes, this is good enough!
