eBionics

eBionics is a team of high school students and at the same time the national winner of the Generation Unlimited – Youth Challenge 2019/20. The product we made is a 3D printed bionic arm (electronic prostheses) for people with upper limb differences, which is 28 times cheaper compared to the other bionic arms currently available on the market. The secret behind this advantage is that we don’t charge for shipping, labor, and profit for the manufacturer and the supplier. eBionics achieves this by designing a bionic arm such that anyone who needs it can download the free model for 3D printing, print it out, order the other parts via Internet and assemble Venus arm, without any previous experience, within a period of 1 hour. eBionics achieved this by decreasing the number on parts drastically and creating a design that is easy to understand and assemble. We created the first universal socket by using a mold that is easily available online, so that the customer will be able to customize the socket within 15 minutes so it will fit perfectly and comfortably. This makes it the most available bionic arm, since anyone can get the parts to assemble it from anywhere in the world. Also, one of the most important beneficiaries from this idea are the children, as because of their growth they can’t afford a bionic arm for a short period of time – this will give them a chance to modify their bionic arm as they grow.
