UH-CARLOS
UH-CARLOS
UH-CARLOS is a low-cost body-powered underactuated hand prosthesis obtained through Multi Jet Fusion technology (MJF), allowing to reduce the number of components and hence contributing to the asembly simplification. This design was developed in the framework of the TFG of Carlos Martínez in the context of this project, under the supervision of Imma Llop and Javier Andrés, members of the reserach team. Th.e project allowed to explore possible technologies and underactuation methods in the phase of concept and preliminary design of UNIQUE-HAND project.
