Organizations Filed Purposes:
Limbitless Solutions is a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering children through personalized, creative, and expressive bionics.
To support UCF in electronic advancements in disability technology; promotion of access and engagement in STEM/STEAM education; and to work with third parties to support further related research.
DESIGN OF BIONIC ARMS FOR CHILDREN: Limbitless Solutions was established as a direct support organization of the University of Central Florida to research, design, create, and deliver mechanical and electronic advancements in disability technology, infusing engineering with artistic design. Limbitless creates personalized, creative, and expressive 3D-printed prosthetics for children with limb differences using electromyographic (EMG) technology. Limbitless works closely with each child and their families, combining art and engineering to make an arm personalized to them, so that each bionic arm created is a reflection of a bionic child's personality. For example, Limbitless collaborates with each child to customize the sleeve design of the child's bionic arm with the goal of reflecting the personalities and interests of each child. Through these expressive bionics, the organization hopes to empower confidence in each child wearing a bionic arm. To help bionic children adapt to their new prosthetic, Limbitless creates fun and immersive video games. The video games use the arm's EMG technology as a controller to help the children gain comfort and skill using their bionic device. 40 CHILDREN HAVE RECEIVED BIONIC LIMBS FROM LIMBITLESS. Additionally, Limbitless Solutions provides and distributes bionic solutions through the clinical trial process, with 62 children being funded for current and future clinical trials thus far.
DEVELOP AND IMPROVE TECHNOLOGY AND DESIGN OF BIONIC ARMS: Implement an interchangeable sleeve design that allows the user to fully customize their bionic device. These artistic sleeves are selected and modified by the user to create a unique, personalized design. Programming and engineering upgrades has allowed for multi-gesture capabilities; giving the user expanded dexterity. Now the user can access multiple gestures (such as finger points, peace signs, thumbs up, etc.) by flexing their muscle.
PROMOTE STEAM/STEM AND HOST EDUCATIONAL EVENTS: Host students for a day-long immersive STEAM experience. Students learn about combining science, technology, engineering, art, and math to create meaningful and artistic designs. Our team also travels across the country talking about 3D Hope and the power of young people getting involved in STEAM at an early age.
