Today, November 30, employees of the Ruselectronics holding, which is part of the Rostec state corporation, officially announced that the company has launched mass production of special high-tech mechanical components necessary for the Manifesto bionic hand prosthesis – this is with reference to the press service of the state corporations reported the publication IXBT. The main difference of this advanced Manifesto prosthesis is that the user gets access to perform various unique gestures that are not available on other models of prosthetic hands. This should significantly increase the level of human comfort in everyday life.
“The production of bionic prostheses is of great social importance. Since 2021, Ruselectronics has already been producing units for the INDY single-grip prosthesis, which performs compression and unclenching of the hand. Now the production of high-tech components for the more advanced Manifesto model has been launched, which allows you to perform more complex manipulations due to the work of each finger. Such products are in great demand both in our country and abroad,” said Oleg Yevtushenko, executive director of Rostec.
The developers of Manifesto managed to implement many unique gestures that improve the standard of living of a person thanks to the work of each individual finger of the prosthesis – they can perform various tasks separately from each other. To do this, an advanced bionic prosthesis was equipped with modern electric motors that set the corresponding finger of the prosthesis in motion, simplifying certain manipulations for a user with disabilities. And, best of all, all kinds of action models can be configured in a special application for a smartphone – there is a three-dimensional model of a prosthetic arm with which you can work.
In this case, the user independently determines what movements and actions he needs, setting everything up in a convenient format on his smartphone without the need to contact specialists. At the same time, the process of transmitting commands is quite complicated – special surface electromyographic sensors are used to control the prosthesis, which are installed in the inner sleeve of the mechanism. The data received from these sensors is transmitted to a special microprocessor installed in the prosthesis, and there the information is converted into a command, for which individual fingers of the device are used.
