Artificial Prosthetic Hand - An Aid for Physically Challenged People

We use our hands without even thinking twice that how much we need it in our day to day life. Hands play a major role in our life and make the hand makes us losing a major chunk of life. It is very pathetic to see any of our close ones to lose a hand and suffer due to it. This is where modern artificial hands play a significant role – they are advanced and highly sophisticated. Along with the advancements the cost also increases for it. On the other hand bionic and mionic hands uses the muscular action which becomes complex to use by people. This motivated us to think about an alternate solution for the complexities which are prevailing in current scenario. The main objective of the researchers is to be useful and affordable for people who lost their hand or born without the hand. The efficacy of the product will enable it to be used in industries to even handle volatile objects .A flex sensor used in making the glove, will be able to convert the bending changes into varying resistance. This feature will enable researchers to use the action of active human hand and copy its actions and replicate it in the prosthetic hand. This varying resistance gives commands to servomotor using microcontroller.
