Distance Sensing Arm Prosthetic

The distance-Sensing arm is an edit of The UnLimbited Arm v2.1 - Alfie Edition by Stephen Robert Davies & Drew Murray / Team Unlimbited. Incorporating a distance Sensing and audio feedback system, it aims to aid those who have suffered limb loss or have limb birth defects and are also blind or partially sighted. This is a common occurance in Colombia due to the high number of land mine accidents.

Right now we are using a more precisely sensor wich works better with the UnLimbited Arm v2.1 and also is cheaper than SRF01. Also we have changed the Buzzer alarm to a vibrating motor.

To view a guide on how to manufacture this prosthetic with the SRF01 sensor, see the wiki.

To view the guide for the new design using the newest sensor and the vibrating motor, see the Distance-Sensing-Arm_V1.5.
