Abstract

Commercially available prostheses do not meet patients' expectations regarding dimensions, shape and aesthetic reasons. This paper presents the design of an anthropomorphic and anthropometric prosthesis based on dimensions and shape extracted from a digitized radiograph of the healthy hand of the patient. The mobility of the hand is guaranteed by making a design of phalanges, joints, ligaments and tendons, as closest as possible to a real hand. The kinematic model is presented and validated. A proposal of the actuation system is also described.
