3D Printed Prosthetic Arm
Description | As part of a summer research placement at the University of Nottingham 3D Printing and Additive Manufacturing Facility in collaboration with the EPSRC Centre for Additive Manufacturing. Myself and two colleagues were asked to create a showpiece to represent the future capabilities and applications of Additive Layer Manufacturing Technologies. I decided to create an active prosthetic arm. The showpiece, nicknamed the terminator arm, is currently on exhibition at the Science Museum in South Kensington, London as well as on tour around the UK, coming to rest in the Manchester Science Museum. It also appeared in the International 3D PRINTSHOW in London, Paris and New York. |
