Design and Development of Wireless Operated Low Cost Prosthetic Hand by Fused Deposition Modeling

Abstract

In present days, unfortunately, many of the people were losing their hands in different situations. The human body parts, which replaced by the artificial parts are known as prosthetic parts. Recently, the advent of 3D printers has enabled people to produce many inexpensive and obtainable prosthetics. This 3D printing technology is used because it takes less cost and manufacturing of hand should be accurate as per the design. In the present project, a low- cost wireless operated prosthetic hand developed with the help of fused deposition modeling. To validate the performance of the developmental prosthetic hand the No.of trial and error experiments conducted. The prototype was agreed some results and some experiments show the mixed results. The overall weight of the prosthetics is optimized and giving the desired functions at a t lowest weight than the normal bionics
