The process begins with a quick 3D scan of a person's arm to capture its exact shape. That scan is then used to create a custom-fit wearable device using 3D printing. Designed specifically for each individual, the lightweight two-piece device fits comfortably around the forearm without limiting movement. It also contains built-in magnetic sensors that detect subtle muscle activity, allowing the system to capture movement signals with greater accuracy.
