E867: Biomedical Engineering 3D Printed Prosthetic Hands in Splash Fall 2019 (Oct. 27, 2019)
3D-printable prosthetics are changing the face of medicine. Consumer 3D printing is leading to an even bigger revolution: "DIY" assistive devices that can be printed by virtually anyone, anywhere. In this class, we will be assembling 3D-printed prosthetic hands while discussing the engineering design process. Almost like a puzzle, you must figure out the correct assemblage of the hand while also examining the mechanical and material choices behind the design. We will also include a brief introduction to major biomedical engineering topics and their applications. **Hosted by the Biomedical Engineering Society**
