DESCRIPTION

Hero PRO is an End-Effectors from Open Bionics. It is built for Medical-Assistance, Rehabilitation, Helping. Key figures: 0.5 kg, 25.9 kg payload.

Hero PRO is Open Bionics' lightweight waterproof bionic hand, 3D printed from tough Nylon PA12. Open Bionics says it is the lightest hand system available, with a full system weight of 1.21 lb including hand, battery, cables, wrist and EMG sensors. Its miniaturised battery sits inside the hand, lasts a day on one 4-hour charge and charges over USB-C. The whole prosthesis is IPX7 water-resistant. The fingers close in 0.6 seconds, and a patented single-motor thumb drives seven grip modes, including a precision key grip. More grips arrive through wireless updates via the Sidekick app. It carries up to 57 lb, twice the previous-generation Hero ARM. The wrist flexes manually 45 degrees each way and rotates a full 360 degrees. A touchscreen fingertip works on phones, and a USMC-standard wrist connector swaps the hand for more than 50 activity attachments.
