The concept was developed by Skip Meetze and Jon Schull at the Rochester e-NABLE Labs (see http://e-nable.org/) to use thin sheets of plastic that are cut with scissors and held together with velcro and thereby eliminating the need to heat the plastic for thermoforming. The device comprises a modular system that includes a terminal device such as the 3D printed Gripper Thumb (see http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1908866). The assistive devices may prove to be useful for trans-radial amputees in underserved areas such as Africa, India, Haiti and Nepal. yt:video:YRXA0slO2vM YRXA0slO2vM UCc8pda6kN0lr2oyegFkgdsQ Skip Meetze https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCc8pda6kN0lr2oyegFkgdsQ 2016-12-13T12:56:30+00:00 2016-12-22T10:00:08+00:00 e NABLE at Rochester Mini Maker Faire The Gripper Thumb TD http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1908866, is an experimental Terminal Device for prosthetic arms, and it was introduced at the Rochester Mini Maker Faire on 19 November 2016. yt:video:BRuFUtK4K90 BRuFUtK4K90 UCc8pda6kN0lr2oyegFkgdsQ Skip Meetze https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCc8pda6kN0lr2oyegFkgdsQ 2016-12-05T13:57:28+00:00 2016-12-10T14:49:42+00:00 Assembling the Gripper Thumb TD The Gripper Thumb TD is an experimental terminal device for upper limb amputees developed in the MAGIC ACT / e-NABLE LAB AT R.I.T. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1908866 It looks like a passive cosmetic prosthesis, but it performs two-handed tasks without a Bowden cable..

The Emulator straps onto the arm of an able-bodied person to allow evaluation of Terminal Devices (TDs) for an upper limb prosthesis It can be an aid to clinicians for demonstrations, and it is also is useful to designers as a testing device.

The Wilhe's Raptor Adaptor is the first step by the e-NABLE Lab at the Rochester Institute of Technology in developing a modular system that connects a 3D-printed hand as an alternative terminal device to a prosthetic arm. This modular system will evolve into 3D-printed terminal devices that can be used by professional prosthetists and e-NABLE volunteers on various kinds of prosthetic arms. This will eventually allow the prosthetic hand technology developed by e-NABLE volunteers to be used for prosthetic arms as well as for wrist-actuated prosthetic hands. yt:video:kuST5-wjze4 kuST5-wjze4 UCc8pda6kN0lr2oyegFkgdsQ Skip Meetze https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCc8pda6kN0lr2oyegFkgdsQ 2014-08-26T00:47:38+00:00 2017-08-05T18:41:47+00:00 Experiencing a Prosthetic Hand (part 2) This specially designed 3D-printed hand lets designers experience how it feels to use a prosthetic. The updated design has a “pinch-grip thumb position” (thumb parallel to the palm) that makes the prosthetic hand more suitable for holding a knife, fork or spoon than the traditional “opposition-grip thumb position” (thumb opposing the palm).

The Modular e-NABLE Research Platform (MeRP 1.0) was printed on a 3D printer. It is a wrist-actuated prosthetic hand that can be worn by able-bodied people for use in their day-to-day activities. This allows prosthetic hand designers to actually use the products they design in order to share in the experience of people who will use the things they design.

It provides an interactive apparatus that has no moving parts except the water flowing through tubes and nozzles and streaming through the open air. The video shows 2 SQUIRTRODES configured to form a flip-flop bistable circuit that operates like it's electronic equivalent in a computer memory.
