Story Criteria

Individual, task specific needs of amputees are not often met by standard prosthetic devices. There is a need for inexpensive, easily accessible, and customizable prosthetic solutions to help people accomplish their unique goals and aspirations. --- ## Criteria Prosthetics are made to fit the general needs of an average user; this often results in more specialized tasks being overlooked by the prosthetic designer. ## Need for cost-effective solutions There is a need for an overarching system to connect amputees with cost-effective and customized solutions. We will be designing multiple prosthetics for two clients as a proof of concept, eventually moving towards creating a website that connects amputees with prospective designers or previously created solutions.
