Company Description

Open Hand Project is a company that uses 3D printing to try and improve the prosthesis process.

The Open Hand Project is an open source project with the goal of making robotic prosthetic hands more accessible to amputees. Leading prosthetics can cost up to $100,000. By using emerging technologies like 3D printing, we can cut that down to under $1000. That’s two orders of magnitude cheaper, and means that these devices can reach a far broader audience!
