Flexy-Hand
By Gyrobot
Re-mix this idea into your own robotic or prosthetic project.- Fingers open automatically, no return tendons or springs needed.- "Frictionless" articulation - no rubbing parts.- Stretchable tendons (FilaFlex) offering adaptive grip on irregular objects (only -one motor required to activate all fingers).- Fully printable solution, no vitamins required.- Tough and rugged.- Realistic form under a surgical glove (see images).Video here : http://youtu.be/K8mtqPTJ-YsVideo review here : http://youtu.be/Z70YWNuOB8EThanks to 3DUniverse.org and jesimon for this review.Here is an article about the Flexy-Hand on 3DPrint.com (http://3dprint.com/1500/the-flexy-hand-3d-printed-prosthetic/)My 1st printed Flexy-Hand (above) is now on display in the iMakr Store (http://www.imakr.com/3Dprintingstore), LondonInstructionsPrint hand body without support.
