Overview
Designed and built a foot-controlled soft exoskeleton to assist individuals with partial or complete hand paralysis.
Integrated user control via custom Arduino-based software, embedded electronics, and 3D-modeled/printed components.
Conducted and published a research preprint analyzing the relationship between hand paralysis, independence, and mental health through interviews across 10+ nursing facilities and 100+ survey responses.
