This prototype iteration uses slightly more expensive motors along with the I2C PCB, and was used by Augment Bionics. Concept of the design is still the same but with slight improvements in CAD design. The designing of the hand took me about a month and the final assembly of the entire hand, circuit and UI was made within a few days. V1 faired considerably better than V0, however, still required maintainace as parts would fail. This was due to some aspects of my design which I wanted to fix before making V1 but hadn't quite figured out a solution at the time.
