The first prototype will be for one arm, including a steel frame for the bicep and forearm area. The goal of it will be to:

1. figure out ways to have a good range of movement for the arm (not including shoulder)

2. optimize size and placement of the pneumatic muscles

3.  get a good idea of what the hand modification/enhancement will look like, from a design and usability standpoint (if an "extra" larger hand is added past the actual normal hand, it will vastly increase the strength requirements for the bicep-forearm muscles)
