Quality of Life Plus partners with engineering students to create life transforming assistive technologies for wounded heroes. Our client sustained injuries that resulted in serious limitations on the use of their left shoulder. We鈥檝e designed a wearable brace controlled by muscle sensors with linear actuators that provide force to a cable system, returning strength, mobility and function to our client鈥檚 arm.
