About

A basketball coach sought a new splint design for athletes — one offering stability against torsion but permitting finger-joint movement. We collaborated to create a manufacturable design using CAD software that balanced functional requirements with production feasibility and cost.

Challenges

Designing a splint that provides torsional stability while allowing flexion at the major finger joint. Ensuring the design is manufacturable and affordable.
