The Hero PRO: A game-changer in bionic hand technology

May, 22, 2025 Hi-network.com

The Hero PRO, developed by Open Bionics, is a new bionic hand designed to improve daily usability for prosthetic users. Made from lightweight 3D-printed Nylon PA12, it is the lightest bionic hand currently available and is both wireless and waterproof, with an IPX7 rating.

The hand uses wireless MyoPods to detect muscle signals, allowing for intuitive control without wires. It offers faster finger movement and can lift up to 57 pounds, doubling the capacity of previous models.

Features include a patented thumb for precision grips, touchscreen compatibility, and extensive wrist flexibility with 360-degree rotation and 45 degrees of manual flexion.

Users can customize grip settings through an app, switch between attachments, and power the device for a full day on a four-hour USB-C charge. Input from about 1,000 users, including prosthetics advocate Tilly Lockey, helped refine the product.

While prices vary, Open Bionics aims to keep costs lower than traditional high-end prosthetics, which typically range from$20,000 to$80,000. The Hero PRO highlights ongoing advancements in prosthetic technology, offering users greater independence and efficiency.
