From YouTube: Duke e-NABLE: 3D Printing Adaptive Devices
Description
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.
A
I'm
good
afternoon,
everyone,
my
name
is
iris:
this
is
Wan
Jake,
Lena,
Ian,
Gaurav
and
Leo,
and
we
are
Duquesne
able
were
actually
a
student-run
Club
that
3d
print
adaptive
devices
and
were
based
out
of
Duke
University's
innovation
co-op.
Some
of
you
may
have
attended
Jenna
and
Jeremy
session
yesterday
for
enable
the
greater
community-
and
we
are
a
branch
of
the
general
enable
and
we're
really
excited
to
be
sharing
some
of
more
of
a
unique
work
today.
So.
B
We
are,
like
iris,
said:
we're
a
student-run
organization.
We
started
in
2015
with
the
goal
of
creating
adaptive
devices
for
people
in
our
community
and
abroad.
We
do
so
free
of
cost
and,
as
our
organization
has
expanded
over
the
years,
we
have
specialized
into
three
main
categories:
clinical
research
and
development
and
outreach.
C
Class
distribution
in
our
major
distribution,
so
we
are
technically
under
the
Pratt
School
of
Engineering
within
Duke.
However,
we
do
have
students
from
a
variety
of
different
majors.
For
example.
Leo
here
is
gonna,
be
our
vice.
President.
Next
year
comes
from
evolutionary
anthropology
background
students
come
from
chemistry,
neuroscience
and
as
well
as
engineering
backgrounds
as
well,
and
then
we
have
majority
freshmen
and
sophomores.
So
we
have
a
bright
future
ahead.
E
So
what
makes
our
work
so
exciting
is
that
it's
so
human
centered,
so
our
entire
process
really
reflects
that
fact
from
the
start
of
the
process,
we're
meeting
with
our
recipient
and
trying
to
figure
out
what
they
want
to
get
out
of
the
project.
That
might
be
just
a
general
prosthetic,
but
does
gripping,
but
it
comes
out
a
low
cost
because
of
their
financial
situation
or
we've
worked
with
people
who
have
full
medical
grade
prosthetics,
but
they
don't
do
something
specific
that
they
need
to
be
able
to
do
for
their
job
or
for
something
fun.
A
So
we're
gonna
be
discussing
four
case
studies
very
quickly,
four
of
our
recipients,
that
we've
worked
with
so
the
first
is
Brooke
and
she
is
a
nurse,
and
so
she
requested
a
device
that
would
allow
her
to
pinch
skin
behind
her
recipients.
Are
her
patients
arm
and
deliver
shots,
and
so
what
we
did
was
we
kind
of
took
this
open
source
file
from
me
naval,
which
is
the
k1
hand,
but
we
kind
of
modified
it
to
try
and
get
to
the
core
of
what
she
actually
requested.
A
So,
instead
of
keeping
all
the
arms
being
able
to
fold,
we
actually
changed
it
to
where
only
the
thumb
and
the
index
finger
finger
would
Bend.
So
this
would
pinch
the
skin
behind
people's
arms
and
then
she
could
administer
the
shot
with
her
good
arm.
Another
cool
part
was
that
she
asked
for
a
fork
holder
on
her
device.
D
Yeah,
so
another
one
of
our
recipients
is
Alison.
She
used
three
years
old.
She
is
very
small,
very
cute,
so
Alison
gave
us
a
few
new
challenges
that
we
hadn't
faced
before
we're
already
working
with
very
small,
very
intricate
parts,
and
now
we
have
to
print
them
smaller
than
ever
before.
We
also
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
are
developing
a
prosthetic
that
is
safe
and
useful
for
a
very
young
child.
So
during
our
prototyping
process
we
worked
our
way
through
several
different
custom,
arms
and
open-source
arms
in
the
greater
enable
community.
D
E
This
is
Logan
he's
an
awesome
five-year-old
we're
still
currently
working
with
him
finishing
up,
work
he's
really
into
superheroes
and
his
family's
really
outdoorsy.
So
we
made
a
modular
device
where
he
can
switch
out
different
attachments
to
do
outdoors
activities
so
fishing
archery
swimming.
We
made
a
bunch
of
different
attachments
that
spring
twist
into
device
and
we
also
delivered
a
web
shooter
for
him.
One
Halloween
I
was
spider-man
and
shoots
a
silly
string
everywhere,
which.
B
So
Jack
he's
a
24
year
old
in
our
community
very
athletic.
Much
like
the
presentation
before
ours
with
the
rowing
machine.
He
has
a
lot
of
athletic
sort
of
desires.
He
wants
out
of
his
adaptive
device,
so
we
are
currently
working
through
that
one
of
the
designs
that
we
currently
have
is
he
wants
to
run
with
weight.
So
we
to
me
it's
a
big
challenge,
making
device
that
can
sustain
that
for
a
long
periods
of
time,
especially
with
PLA,
so
we're
still
amidst
the
design
process.
B
F
So,
along
with
all
of
the
recipients
that
we
have,
we
also
have
another
branch
with
other
teams
working
on
research
and
development
projects,
and
we
started
to
move
into
this
field.
Once
we
saw
a
lot
of
the
accessible
technology
that
we
can
use
to
improve
some
of
the
designs
and
a
lot
of
our
teams
do
stuff,
ranging
from
CT
scans
to
using
micro
controllers,
using
mile
electrics
to
making
our
own
design
of
a
form
and
actually
the
fingers
that
we
can
use
an
easily
adapt
for
all
of
our
recipients.
F
G
So,
like
Juan
mentioned,
one
of
the
R&D
projects
working
on
right
now
is
to
develop
our
very
own
custom
design
that
we've
developed
completely
from
scratch.
You
can
see
an
early
prototype
standing
on
the
table.
Right
here
still
needs
some
work,
but
the
basic
idea
is:
we
want
a
nice
template
arm,
that's
easy
to
modify
and
easy
to
add
to,
because
we
like
to
do
a
lot
of
customization
of
our
designs
for
the
specific
tasks
that
our
recipients
want
to
be
able
to
perform.
G
F
In
order
to
replicate
the
motion
in
real
life-
and
this
is
more
of
a
template
for
a
lot
of
what
we
were
doing
as
you'll
see,
you'll
have
the
mile
band
up
there.
But
since
we
can't
feasibly
give
that
away
since
it's
not
manufactured
anymore
and
it's
quite
expensive,
we're
hoping
to
move
that
into
our
own
electronic
design.
F
D
So
we
have
a
lot
of
cad
skills
and
your
D
printing
skills
through
our
work
with
enable,
and
we,
whenever
abit
goals,
is
to
help
with
education.
So
we
like
to
work
with
other
student
groups
such
as
Femmes,
which
is
a
group
on
our
campus
that
develop
educational,
stem
programming
for
elementary
middle
and
high
school
girls.
So
we
work
with
them
to
provide
workshops
we
solve.
You
have
also
worked
with
Girl
Scouts
of
the
USA
and
we
develop
our
own
workshops.
First
goes
development,
yeah.
A
C
Also
passionate
about
both
contain
both
expanding
and
engaging
our
community.
So
we
do
this
through
a
variety
of
different
initiatives.
One
is
which
partnering
one
includes
partnering
with
the
onp
Center
nearby
at
Duke,
and
then
additionally,
we
have
collaborations
with
other
universities
that
we're
currently
working
on
whether
it's
NC
State's
helping
hands
project,
a
group
at
Auburn
and
a
bunch
of
different
groups
that
we're
trying
to
work
with,
and
then
we
also
engage
our
alumni
and
so
a
lot
of
them
come
back
and
visit
and
a
lot
of
them.
