For this week’s update, I have come up with a device that focuses on arthritis, specifically grip problems. The device will consist of a glove, with a mechanism on the palm, and rubber bands into each finger. The mechanism will sense that the user wants to grip something, it will create pull and tension, thus closing the hand with less effort from the user. Below are sketches, pictures, and videos of the process. Also I did a short ppt in order to showcase my idea.
