1 Biomedical Engineering Arm Prosthesis Controlled by EEG Signals TEAM 2: CHARLES BROWN, ASHLEY LEMUS,TOM PROKOP AND ARIUM ROSE

2 Overview: OBJECTIVES PROCESS CHALLENGES SOLUTIONS IF THE DESIGN MEET THE EXPECTATIONS MANAGEMENT DETAILS ABOUT THEPROJECT: TIMELINES JUSTIFIED STAFFING A N D MAN-HOURS JUSTIFIED COSTS SUPPLIES ASSEMBLY A N D TRANSPORTATIONS PRODUCT TESTING A N D OTHER DETAILS.

3 Objectives: This Prosthesis was design to replace limbs. Improve quality of life by providing greater stability of movements and to aid with the completion of daily tasks in a work environment. Provide innovative technology by contributing with the development of more accessible and affordable designs.

4 How does it work? This Prosthesis are controlled with EEG signals (Electroencephalogram) collected directly from the brain. This Technique is called "Brain Computer Interferences" (BCI) Electrodes record electrical activity of the brain and transfer the signals to the Motor drive to control the wrist and the lifting mechanism andthe other Motor drive to control the motor from opening and closing mechanism.

5 Mechanical design of the Prothesis Evaluation ofthe measurements and proportions as well as efficiency in a work environment of an average man. A scan was done to a man's arm to obtain a prothesis with the appearance and functionality of an arm. The design can be divided into 3: Docking Structure Forearm Structure Hand

6 Challenges and Solution BCI uses electrodes which had to be implanted in the motor cortex Obtain EEG signals by placing surface electrodes in the scalp. Metal implant attach directly to thebone Neoprene shoulder support was adapted to ensure the comfort. The amount of electronic components They were adapted in plates for better accommodation and easier manufacture. Grabbing deliciate objects Highly sensitive sensors were installed to prevent damaging deliciated objects

7 Timeline RESEARCH RATIONALE SUMMARY STAFFING BUDGET ASSEMBLY of PROTOTYPE PRODUCT TESTING LAW & REGULATIONS

8 Test and results The validation tests for the prosthesis were divided into 2 parts: 1. Validation of mechanical Structure 2. Validation of BCI How were they tested: Different test holding different size objects. 55 people tested the BIC validation by completing different task like opening and closing the hand,as well as activation of the wrist turning mechanism.

12 Conclusion During the initial stage of developing an active prosthesis Mechanical structure successfully manages under stress conditions Opening and closing mechanisms proved to be efficient in handling medium and large objects, but not able to handle small objects Effective wrist rotation motion Need for another sensor to improve lifting mechanism The Emotiv EEG Neuroheadset proved to be efficient The prosthesis meets all expectations
