Motorized Prosthetic Arm

Overview

For individuals with upper-limb loss, the absence of natural arm swing during walking impacts balance and stability. Traditional prosthetic arms are motor-less, and therefore do not restore the natural dynamics of gait.

This project aims to build a motorized prosthesis that actively mimics natural arm swing, restoring biomechanical symmetry and improving overall walking stability.
