Abstract:
Being born without arm and losing arm by accident is a common issue. A robotic Prosthetic arm is an important product for handless people. A good robotic prosthetic arm is able to restore the functionality of their lost hand. At present, there are many good-quality prosthetic arm is available in the market at present are very expensive, which is very tough to afford the cost for everyone. And to overcome this problem, in this article we shown the design and development process of a low-cost Prosthetic hand using PLA material with 3D printing technology. The height of this prosthetic arm is usually about 16 inches long. A microcontroller that controls the whole arm and the microcontroller will be controlled by the sensor, the sensor will control the electromyographic (EMG) signal from the user's hand muscle movement. The component list, features and price of our prosthetic arm have been compared with some of the arms in the market. Which has enabled our study to reach the goal.
