I lead a small team dedicated to creating an adjustable lower-limb prosthetic pylon for growing adolescents to increase accessibility and decrease costs for patients and their families. We have developed a prototype using CNC machining, lathes, CAD, and 3D printing, and performed usability, impact, and strength testing. We presented our progress in front.
