Description

The ABRAZA project focuses on the design and development of a multifunctional robotic arm aimed at improving communication, independence and assistance for people with support needs who use wheelchairs, by integrating advanced technologies in the fields of actuation, control, materials and accessibility. In this multidisciplinary effort, Leartiker plays a key role as a technology centre specialising in polymeric materials and manufacturing processes, leading the selection of materials, the analysis of their behaviour, and the definition of the optimal manufacturing methods for the arm’s components.
