Prosthetic Arm
Elumotion provided Touch Bionics with a 4 degree of freedom prosthetic arm based on our patented technology used in the Robotic Torsos.The arm was built to meet certain commercial acceptance test criteria, but also succeeded in matching the specification of a DARPA call for new prosthetics that had recently been published too.While there are still technological barriers hindering the successful merging of robotics and prosthetics, our technology indicated an approach that could marry the two. This experience gave us confidence to find other commercial opportunities which we subsequently identified as the market need for a more sophisticated affordable robotic hand.
