Journal Article
Oldfrey, B. M., Morgado Ramirez, D. Z., Miodownik, M., Wassall, M., Ramstrand, N., Wong, M. S., …Holloway, C. (2024). A scoping review of digital fabrication techniques applied to prosthetics and orthotics: Part 1 of 2—Prosthetics. Prosthetics and Orthotics International, https://doi.org/10.1097/pxr.0000000000000351

Background: Traditionally, the manufacture of prostheses is time-consuming and labor-intensive. One possible route to improving access and quality of these devices is the digitalizing of the fabrication process, which may reduce the burden of manual...

A quantitative comparison between the mHand Adapt passive adjustable hand prosthesis and its predecessor, the Delft Self-Grasping Hand (2024)
Journal Article
Krinis, S., Chadwell, A., Kenney, L., & Smit, G. (in press). A quantitative comparison between the mHand Adapt passive adjustable hand prosthesis and its predecessor, the Delft Self-Grasping Hand. PLoS ONE, 19(3), e0300469. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0300469

Introduction: The Delft Self-Grasping Hand (SGH) is an adjustable passive hand prosthesis that relies on wrist flexion to adjust the aperture of its grasp. The mechanism requires engagement of the contralateral hand meaning that hand is not available...
