Abstract The purpose of our innovative device, “The Hand Constraint” is designed towards people who have osteoporosis in their wrists/and or weak hand strength. Our device helps the people affected by these circumstances by easing the weight of items when they carry them, so it is not hard on their hands and arms. It also helps people with osteoporosis by providing more protection toward their wrist, so that the risk of them fracturing it lowers.
