!-- WORK IN PROGRESS --!! !-- GIVE US FEEDBACK SO WE CAN MAKE IT BETTER --!! The prosthetic limb featured here was created by Team Unlimited, who are the inspiration for our project and the foundation upon which our modifications were built. Learn more about Team Unlimited at www.teamunlimbited.org. The Unlimbited Arm (Remix) - Edmund Edition arm is an open-source, 3D printed prosthetic arm that utilizes a pull-to-activate gripping system. By eliminating wrist or elbow grip activation, this hand does not require constant strain or bending to maintain a solid grip. Instead, the user pulls a Velcro tab and locks it in place. Once locked, the grip of the hand is both strong enough to ride a bike and dexterous enough to use a pencil. For the complete assembly guide, see Instructables at https://www.instructables.com/id/Unlimbited-Arm-Remix-Edmund-Edition/. This design is based on the UnLimbited Arm v2.1 - Alfie Edition. **Improvements** - A groove was added to the palm to fit a handlebar. - The first knuckle of fingers was fused for improved grip and rigidity. - Small grooves and inserts were added for elastic bands to support pen/pencil use. - Wrist activation was replaced with a pull-and-lock Velcro tab. - Forearm support was added.
