e-NABLE / e-NABLE Presentations/Interviews

In this recording, you'll hear from Yair Herbst of Haifa 3D, an e-NABLE chapter in Israel. They're doing some wonderful and innovative work on developing designs that can be more easily customized, with a streamlined production workflow.

Duke e-NABLE 3D Prints adaptive devices for amputees. Our work is niche and custom-made for each recipients' needs, whether a four-year-old's desire to be spiderman or an adult seeks to complete his job as a plumber. Not only do we use the open-source files from the general community e-NABLE, we have a research and development team custom-designing arm files from scratch that utilizes motors and myoelectric work to move fingers and the wrist simply based on muscle detection. Additionally, we have done research with several different types of other devices, such as shoulder powered, and we are currently working with a dog recipient. We truly hope to make an impact on the individual lives we work with and expand the research in 3D Printed devices for the future.

e-NABLE, a worldwide volunteer group helps bring free prosthetics to people in need. However, the effectiveness of their prosthetic hands has never been systematically assessed. We tested the manual gross dexterity of the four most popular styles of e-NABLE hands, the Unlimbited Phoenix, Phoenix V2, Raptor Reloaded, and Osprey hands using the Box and Block Test (BBT). We found that the Raptor Reloaded hand performed significantly worse when compared to the Phoenix V2 and Unlimbited Phoenix hands. There was no statistically significant difference amongst the two Phoenix and Osprey hand designs. The results show that eNABLE devices still need improvements in order to compare favorably with some of the lower performing commercially available prosthetic hands. This work, therefore, establishes a quantitative baseline of performance of current e-NABLE designs and provides a clinically valid testing protocol for future assessment of 3D printed prosthetic devices.

Eric Bubar conducts research in using desktop 3D printing to create upper-limb assistive devices. Projects have included testing 3D printed prosthetics, creating low-cost mechanical prosthetics and designing custom devices using 3D scanning.

e-NABLE is a global movement of makers who are using 3D printing to create free 3D printed hands and arms for those who were born missing their fingers or have lost their limbs due to war, natural disaster, accident or illness. There are approximately 20,000 e-NABLE volunteers in over 100 countries worldwide who have collaborated to create and gift an estimated 10,000 free 3D printed hands and arms to those in need. There are over 2000 schools in dozens of countries who have incorporated e-NABLE into their STEM-based learning environments.

During this presentation, participants will learn how they can use the e-NABLE project to teach their students that they themselves have the power to change people's lives by using their ideas and imaginations to solve real-world problems with 3D printing and rapid prototyping technology. We will share other ways in which educators can get their students involved in their local communities and use 3D printing to make a difference.

Jen Owen is a Co-founder of e-NABLE and owner and co-creator of enablingthefuture.org, a website dedicated to sharing the open-source designs and stories from a global community of volunteers who are creating free 3D printed hands and arms for those who were born missing fingers or who have lost them due to war, accident, natural disaster or disease.

Her philanthropic focus for the past 8 years has involved helping to found and collaboratively lead e-NABLE, a global movement of makers and digital humanitarians who strive to increase the accessibility of prosthetic hands for children and introduce 3D printing technology and curriculums into STEM-based learning environments around the world.

What started as a fun cosplay costume project in her family’s garage, turned out to be a catalyst in a series of incredibly timed events that led to the creation of the first 3D printed prosthetic hand for a single child in South Africa and has since grown into a worldwide passion project of over 20,000 of volunteers in over 100 countries and approximately 3000 schools who have delivered an estimated 10,000 or more free 3D printed assistive devices to children and adults in need of a “helping hand.”

Jen’s presentations are inspirational, personal and from the heart. Her examples of making a difference in the world leave audience members inspired and encouraged to use their ideas and imaginations to create collaborative programs in their own communities and start making a difference as well.

She is an internationally recognized blog author, photographer, storyteller, graphic designer and philanthropist from Washington State and currently works as the Creative Director for 3D Universe.

In this video I Interview Dr Eric Bubar where he Explains How the 3D Printing Community Can Contribute to eNable ERRF2018 during the East Coast Rep Rap Festival ERRF2018. eNable is a Global Network Of Passionate Volunteers Using 3D Printing To Give The World A "Helping Hand.". It is an organization that empowers the community to 3D Print and assemble prosthetic devices to individuals in need of all ages. Dr. Bubar shows and explains why the prosthetic devices were designed and how they eNable those to accomplish more with them. Prosthetic devices can cost tens of thousands of dollars. These devices can be printed for the cost that is less than the roll of filament and assembled with hardware for well under $100. Several models are available for the community to download and print on their 3D Printer.

It’s estimated that one in 2,000 children are born with a hand or arm abnormality, but the cost of a mechanical hand or arm can be prohibitive for children who will quickly outgrow them. Now, with just $10 to $20 worth of plastic, 3-D printers are being used to create fully functioning mechanical hands or arms for children. Jon Schull is the co-founder of e-Nable, an organization dedicated to connecting 3-D printers around the globe to those in need of a hand, literally.

e-NABLE: 3D-Printing Helping Hands for the Global Village

Jon Schull, Research Scientist, MAGIC (Media, Arts, Games,
Interaction and Creativity) Center at Rochester Institute of Technology

The 3-D Mechanical Hand Maker Movement was inspired by two strangers (a prop maker from the U.S. and a carpenter from South Africa) who came together from 10,000 miles apart to create a prosthetic hand device for a small child in South Africa and then gave the plans away for free so that those in need of the device could make them for themselves or have someone make it for them. What originally started out as a couple of guys creating something to help one child in need has grown into a world wide movement of tinkerers, engineers, 3-D print enthusiasts, occupational therapists, university professors, designers, parents, families, artists, students, teachers, and people who just want to make a difference.

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Using an amazing combination of technology and generosity, Jon organized the E-nable community. This organization connects people with 3D printers to children in need of prosthetic hands. The hands are designed, printed, and assembled for free.

A biological psychologist, entrepreneur, community organizer, and Coordinator of RIT’s ​MAGIC ACT initiative (​​RIT's ​Media Arts Games Interaction and Creativity initiative for Access and Collaboration Technologies), Jon Schull has successfully implemented planning, problem solving, creativity, and innovation processes and projects in a variety of teams and organizations. Author of ​18 patents and scores of scholarly articles, Schull is an internationally recognized innovator in intellectual property protection, information commerce, intelligence in biological and artificial systems, active transportation and sustainability,​ crowd-sourced mass-customized volunteer-printed prosthetics,​ and the facilitation of multi-disciplinary collaboration via technology and mentoring.

Prof. Schull has delivered speeches at industry events, lectured at universities, and spoken to smaller groups on a variety of topics, electronic publishing, biological and cultural evolution, active transportation planning, the teaching and learning of innovation, and emerging technologies for collaboration.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
