Abstract

The need for manufacturing affordable and effective rehabilitation tools is critical in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs), where access to advanced medical equipment is often limited. This paper addresses this gap by proposing a biomedical circuit design for hand rehabilitation that leverages locally available resources and open-source technology. The project underscores the potential for low-cost, locally manufactured biomedical devices to improve healthcare accessibility and outcomes in LMICs.
