These rooms provide students from the Cybathlon courses to develop practical work and test their ideas on the prosthesis improvement and development. We address issues such as:
- How to improve a prosthetic device so it can be used to successfully complete the race tasks of the Cybathlon competition.
- How to incorporate feedback from disabled people to improve the technical design of the prosthesis.
- Ethical concerns of the usage and development of the prosthetic device.
On 13th November 2020 our CyberTum team competed in the Powered Arm Prosthesis Race at the CYBATHLON championship pioneered by ETH Zürich. Simona, the pilot of Cybaria one, used this prosthesis in six tasks at the Munich School of Robotics and Machine Intelligence’s facility.
