Key Success Factors
RE-USABILITYProsthesis need be to be adjusted to the patient, e.g. in case of a growing child, and usually the older device would be wasted. To avoid this eventuality, SynCH is built with materials that can be recycled and reused.
REPAIRABILITYAn open source device should be fully repairable with tools and components available off the shelf. Anyone will be able to repair his/her prosthesis without sending it back to the factory.
RE-CONFIGURATIONIn case of further improvements e.g. in the sensors, it is possible to adapt both the 3D structure and the firmware, easily.
CUSTOMIZATIONOur aim is to build personalized prostheses that are more comfortable andaesthetically transparent to the user.
