Updated Brace

Our newest prototype is in the process of being printed. The changes that we have made include: modified straps in order to take the brace on and off, and a new system for the brace to be able to lock in different positions. Once the brace is fully printed, we will post a photo of the brace in the visual log.

Icy Hot Smart Relief

We have purchased an Icy Hot smart relief pad to work with and incorporate into our brace. We have tried it out on a peers shoulder, and it worked exceptionally well. It caused a tingly sensation throughout the shoulder and applied heat to the areas in pain. We will now work with our brace and the pad together in attempt to have them work cohesively.
