Meet BrainCo
BrainCo grew out of the Harvard Innovation Lab. They develop cognitive training technology products and apply their expertise in machine learning, design, and neuroscience to create innovative cognitive-based applications. The BrainCo team is most famous for developing the award-winning Dexus Prosthetic Hand, a revolutionary device changing amputees' lives everyday. Now they're sharing their genius with STEM education.
The STEM Hand
The BrainCo STEM Hand is a multi-grade compatible STEM solution. It brings standards-aligned project-based learning to school and after school environments.
Solutions include:
• Curriculum
• Activities
• Simple to operate
• Easy to scale programming
• Afterschool activities
Through provided curriculum, hardware and programming tools, educators can excite students in Computer Science, STEM, Career Technical Education technology fields, Biomedical Engineering, Biotech and afterschool programs. Whether you are looking for a full class solution or an addition to your current tools, the STEM hand can add excitement and skill-building activities from one day to full semester timeframes.
Middle and High School Engineering Programs
Imagine the projects and challenges this device can inspire. Everything is open-source from the 3D printed and laser cut parts to the programming language.
The hand is currently available in kit form and will also be available in a RTR (ready-to-run) form soon. The hand and controller can be disassembled and reused (and modified) repeatedly.
