This is a contribution to the eNABLE community of open-source prosthetic hands.
The Falcon V2 is a new hand design for test of a number of new concepts. The key features we focused on for the falcon were:
1. High degree of field maintainability: If a finger breaks, it is easily snapped off and a replacement is snapped on. Control cables are fished through one channel and crimped in place, requiring no tools and no knot tying. It is suggested that users are provided with 3-4 extra fingers with control cables run for easy repairs.
2. Reduced (removed?) knot tying – ideally no knots are required for assembling a falcon hand (and by extension no knots to fail).
3. Two position thumb: Allows for both key grip and cylindrical grip
4. Modular Palm: The hand has a structural frame with a mostly cosmetic palm cover. If someone wishes to design a modified palm cover they simply need to match the hole pattern used for securing the palm cover to the palm frame. In doing so they
