Jizai Arms Supernumerary Robotic Limb System

Jizai Arms

Jizai Arms is a supernumerary robotic limb system worn on the body. The system consists of a wearable base unit with six terminals and detachable robotic arms, each with five degrees of freedom. The arms can be attached and removed quickly, so wearers can exchange arms with one another. Exterior parts are produced by three-dimensional printing, which allows complex shapes and reduces weight. The arms are operated through a half scale model moved by hand, and the posture of the model is applied directly to the robotic arms.

Jizai Arms Supernumerary Robotic Limb System by Team JIZAI ARMS has been recognized as an outstanding example of industrial design by the A' Design Awards. Jizai Arms Supernumerary Robotic Limb System earned the Golden A' Design Award in Cybernetics, Prosthesis and Implant Design in 2023. The A' Cybernetics, Prosthesis and Implant Design Award is an international, meritocratic, just and fair design accolade that recognizes outstanding design of bionic limbs, neural implants, cochlear implants, retinal prosthetics, robotic prosthetics, artificial organs, sensory substitutes, biochip systems and more.
