Globally there are an estimated 3 million people that are in need of arm prosthetics. Standard prosthetics are expensive, and
they need to be replaced every 3 to 5 years, making it a burden on those who need it. Standard prosthetics also do not give
users the range of motion and freedom need to be most useful to them. Only a small proportion of amputees can afford high
tech protheses. Adam’s Hand (A Dialogic, Adaptive, Modular, Sensitive Hand) is an innovative myoelectric hand prosthesis
based on a revolutionary mechanism – patented in Italy, patent-pending in EU, USA, China, India - that moves all fingers
with just one motor (instead of the state-of-the-art 5-6 motors poli-articulated devices), making it extremely easy to control.
Adam’s Hand provides a fuller range of motion and control for users, acting more like a living hand, also being lighter, more
compact, less loud and presenting higher autonomy. The number of people who will require an amputation will double by
2050. Having a device that allows you to have a functioning limb will allow people to have more freedom in their everyday
lives. Adam’s Hand’s innovation represents a growing trend in the mechatronic research field, allowing for the design of
robust, lightweight and easy-to-control end-effectors and in high-resistance 3D printing that allows for the fast production of
tailor-made and highly-customizable prosthetic devices. This gives us a SOM of €300 million. People with disabilities make
an enormous contribution to European society, but often face barriers that prevent them from participating in society on an
equal basis with others. At BionIT Labs, our mission is to improve the quality of life for people with disabilities by creating
innovative and affordable technology that can Turn their disabilities into New Possibilities, allowing users to operate with
ease in any environment.
