SensorHand® SPEED


Twice as Fast and Even More Responsive

With a dizzying 300mm per second opening/closing speed and enhanced EMG signal processing, the new SensorHand® SPEED has unmatched speed and responsiveness. In addition, our unique AutoGrasp feature keeps held objects from slipping by monitoring and changing grip force as needed.

Easy to Fit, Easy to Use

As part of the modular MyoBock line of Otto Bock upper limb prosthetics, the SensorHand® SPEED allows you to use one or two input devices and to select from various control options simply by exchanging the colored coding plugs. In addition, the hand is available with a lamination ring or with a quick disconnect wrist for easy terminal device changes.

The Best Hand in the World Just Got Better

Faster! Proportional speed from 15-300 mm/second. Twice the speed of other myoelectric hands (Standard hands run at approximately 130 mm/second).

Enhanced EMG signal processing and improved software make the SPEED even more responsive to user's signals. Experienced users say they can't 'outcontract' the hand.

High user acceptance rate because it's quicker to open, change between opening and closing, and accumulate grip force.

The AutoGrasp feature allows the wearer to simply hold an object and avoid wasting energy on monitoring whether the item is slipping or not. AutoGrasp can even be turned off when not needed. Standard slip-clutch allows the wearer to release hand quickly in an emergency.

Improved design along with a new microprocessor and advanced software make the SPEED faster and quieter without having to use possibly damaging higher voltage batteries.

Increased opening power is designed to overcome any resistance from stiff gloves and handshells.

Effective at lower temperatures: the SensorHand SPEED works normally in temperatures as low as -4°F/-20° C.
