BioEnginuity Impact Grant Recipient, Daniel Lim, Awarded Design Master Prize
Current research in prosthetic hand design faces a big challenge: it's very expensive to customize prosthetic hands to fit each user's specific needs. In the U.S., there are over 541,000 people who have lost part of their upper limbs, and 78% of these cases involve partial hand or finger amputations. Daniel Lim's project, EXODIA, aims to solve this problem by using a data-driven approach to create modular prosthetic hands, which can be easily adjusted without needing as much input from human designers.
