E-GRIP [grasping device for disabled persons]
Samuel Sanchez, Brooke Hallowell, John Denis Enderle · 2002
The E-GRIP grasping device enables a wearer, with limited manual strength and dexterity, to grip implements with handles such as golf clubs, brooms, rakes, and shovels. Grip strength is achieved by unique usage of externally located shape memory metal wires. The device is also voice controlled for hands free operation.
