The Hero Arm

The Hero Arm is a lightweight myoelectric prosthesis with a versatile multi-grip bionic hand, an adjustable and breathable socket, high-performance motors and batteries, and empowering aesthetics. It is the most affordable multi-grip bionic arm in the world, less than half the price of its nearest competitor. The Hero Arm is durable, reliable, medically approved, and FDA registered. It is available through prosthetics clinics for both adults and children as young as eight years old with acquired or congenital below-elbow upper limb differences.

Open BionicsOpen Bionics was founded in 2014 by Joel Gibbard and Samantha Payne with the goal of developing affordable, assistive devices that enhance the human body. In other words, we turn disabilities into superpowers. Based in Bristol in the U.K., we’re building Hero Arms for people with limb differences all over the world. Your clinician will send us a 3D scan or cast of your residual limb, and we custom build your Hero Arm.

We receive a 3D scan or physical cast of your residual limb from your prosthetist to create a custom-built prosthesis. Your Hero Arm socket is comfortable, breathable, and adjustable, which means it’s easy to take on and off while providing you with the best possible fit.

Engineered especially for you

Intuitive and effortless

With the Hero Arm, technology is at your fingertips. Literally. Special EMG sensors within the Hero Arm detect muscle movements, meaning you can intuitively control your bionic hand. You’ll be able to cycle through a variety of grips (hook, tripod and pinch) and receive feedback through haptic vibrations, beepers and buttons.

“I can grip a toothbrush, use a knife and fork, brush my hair and play video games without having to tape the controller to my hand like I used to.”

- Tilly Lockey, from County Durham, U.K.

“Zak’s previous prosthetics were a little bit heavier and not as user-friendly to him, and so he wasn’t overly excited to use them at the time. The Hero Arm is lighter, and he had more input into the colour and the design, so he felt more part of the process.”

- Lesley Dubin, (Zak’s mum) from Michigan, U.S.A.

Even though the Hero Arm is powered by high performance motors, advanced software and long-lasting batteries, it’s lightweight and super sleek.
