I have redesigned the Kwawu arm to be more natural looking and more functional. The terminal device has a much higher grip strength and functionality. Very good at picking up small things with index finger and thumb and big things with whole hand.

This version is the socket version intended for people with short forearm residual limbs.

There is a wrap version for people with long forearm residuals
