3D Printed Bionic Hand - A Little IOT and a Xamarin Mobile App

Explore the innovative process of creating a 3D printed bionic hand for Kayden, a 15-year-old born without a left forearm and hand. Discover how modern technology can improve lives and reduce costs compared to traditional prosthetics provided by the UK's National Health Service. Learn about 3D printing articulated hand parts, programming IoT boards from Adafruit and WildernessLabs F7 using .NET, and developing a Xamarin mobile app for customization and control. Gain insights into Bluetooth connectivity, UI design for accessibility, and the potential of open-source projects to make affordable prosthetics available worldwide. Witness demonstrations of the 3D printed components, IoT board programming, and the Xamarin application in this informative conference talk that showcases the intersection of 3D printing, IoT, and mobile app development in creating cost-effective and functional prosthetic solutions.
