The Michelangelo hand is a core component of the unique and streamlined AxonBus system. Engineered to be lightweight, powerful, and fast, the Michelangelo hand aims to restore numerous functions of a natural hand through its sophisticated and intelligent design.
The Ottobock Michelangelo hand features four movable fingers and a powerful thumb that can be positioned independently using muscle signals. It offers seven functional, naturally designed hand positions, each delivered with impressive speed and strength.
The AxonWrist mechanical wrist can be rotated inward and outward, as well as flexed and extended. In flexible mode, the AxonWrist simulates the movement characteristics of a relaxed, natural wrist. This helps prevent unnatural compensatory movements and supports a healthy body posture.
A team of premium product developers designed the Michelangelo hand to look and feel as close to a natural hand as possible. The fingers are highly detailed, constructed from a blend of soft and hard materials. The unique, flat, oval wrist joint flexes and extends just like a natural one. Additionally, prosthetic gloves available in various shades offer multiple options for personal expression.
