Abstract: The present invention discloses a device for a 3D-printed exoskeleton hand configured to assist individuals with impaired motor function due to stroke or related conditions. The device comprises a lightweight exoskeleton framework, servo motor assemblies, an EMG sensor module, and an embedded control unit. The system detects muscle activity and translates signals into coordinated finger movements using servo actuation. The exoskeleton provides multiple degrees of freedom, enabling natural hand motion and functional assistance. The use of 3D printing technology allows customization, reduced weight, and cost-effective fabrication. The invention supports rehabilitation and assistive applications by improving motor functionality and user independence.
