Bionic limbs have transformed the lives of individuals with missing or damaged limbs, enabling them to regain independence using electronic sensors and motors. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in prosthetic devices, with some reaching a level of sophistication that is almost indistinguishable from natural limbs. However, not all amputees have equal access to cutting-edge technology, which motivates the research and development presented in this paper. In this study, we have designed and developed a bionic arm that can be easily manufactured using additive manufacturing, paired with a wearable sensor suit that commands the actuators to execute movements. The use of gesturecontrolled wearable sensors allows for the creation of sophisticated bionic arms with applications in both civilian and military contexts. Furthermore, the team is exploring the use of advanced computer algorithms to enable fast and fluid movements, facilitating the performance of complex tasks with prosthetic limbs. This paper provides a general design overview of the bionic arm and its sensor suit, showcasing the potential of this innovative approach in revolutionizing the field of prosthetics. The use of additive manufacturing and wearable sensor technology opens up new possibilities for providing accessible and advanced prosthetic solutions for individuals with limb loss.
