Augment Bionics is a university start-up that is focused on building highly functional and affordable 3D printed prosthetic arms.

Augment Bionics Description

ArmEd is a student-led project based at the University of Edinburgh that is focused on building a smart, highly functional and affordable 3D printed prosthesis. The remarkably functional robotic arm prostheses currently available on the market are incredibly expensive. The affordable alternatives, however, barely bring any motor skills back to the amputee. The highly inter-disciplinary ArmEd team currently consists of 20 talented individuals working on the technical, aesthetic and commercial aspects of the innovative prosthesis in order to bridge the aforementioned gap and empower amputees.
