From YouTube: The Osprey Hand: First Impressions

Description

Here are two recipients of the Osprey Hand moments after they first put it on. The first recipient shown has never used a wrist-powered assistive device, and the second recipient is my son, who has used this kind of device for a couple years.

A

You can smile, you.

B

Doing great, are you doing great.

B

B

Ok- and you can turn it right and I, don't it's not gonna fall off and at this point.

B

C

Much, can you extend your wrist.

B

Okay, okay, that's fine it'll, take practice; yeah you'll, develop strength and you'll develop more range. So as you as you practice,.

B

B

So how does it feel I think I might need to adjust the cables a little bit? It looks like to open the hand you're having to its extend this.

A

Definite little must end up to open and then bring straight this straight in parallel with the this one year, lows yeah awkward, but it works pretty well actually, okay,.

B

Very very snappy.

A

Cable action there yeah.

B

Yeah well, the cables are fully enclosed now, so.

B

B

Well, I can adjust it so that you don't have to extend your wrist all the way.

A

A

About to here's a pretty good little bit of is nice here.

C

A

Actually, almost bringing these together too and then.

B

All the way, okay, so it's a little bit tensioned.

A

A little bit high, but that allows for actually a pretty strong trick that way: okay.

B

A

Slightly more tiring to use but I'm not having to bring my hand all the way forward for a powerful grip is where a grip adds a lot of power to it. Okay,.

B

Okay how's the range of motion, or it it looks like it's a little shorter than the Talent yeah.

A

It is a little bit shorter.

B

A

Part of why I'm getting such I think this.

C

Place responds.

A

But it doesn't feel like I'm losing much power with it. I've.

B

C

A

Strong grip, it is still okay,.

B

A

Good, it's not like.

A

C

A

C

I just said: twitching, it closes and.

A

Then stuff just falls out of the fingers and.

C

B

A

Yeah, the kid feels very, very sturdy, I feel pretty confident making up like cinder blocks with this thing, yeah.

B

Pick up the drill off the bed, it's got a little a little weight to it.

A

B

Yeah by the handle, yeah I.

A

B

Just like grab it, however, or not, even necessarily by the handle, but how can you work that? Can you actually make it run? I.

A

Never had a hand up in Vegas.

A

My fingers I think, are too big. Actually, oh yeah.

B

A

Here the pinkies.

B

If you could adjust the tension, so it would do that yeah.

A

Tension so Joseph appears like I guess, like the trigger finger came in first and then.

C

A

Sort of stayed help if I could use this if I was being so. It's feeling fancy I could probably use this.

B

You could just uncapable a pinkie yeah and then it could that do like that. Yes, because.

A

With the pink I mean, I get it's kind of, they get only barely hits on this drill start with this. One doesn't wait.

C

A

A lot of things only use three fingers, because 4 is just excessive. Who has hands that big right, yeah.

B

You got that book off the table a book there.

A

Awkward to do so and kind of not.

C

A shape I'm used to.

A

Carrying with this.

A

Definitely do the apps.

B

B

All right cool see.
