The Helping Hand
Actuated Hand Exerciser

Welcome to the "Helping Hand" design team headquarters!
 

Goal Statement

Our goal is to build a rehabilitation device for people who have lost partial or complete use of their hands. When triggered, the device will open the patient's hand on its own, and then allow him or her to close it individually or with partial assistance. The purpose of the device is to serve as a form of physical therapy to enhance hand rehabilitation.
