Prostetic arm Im 18 and i lost my left arm in a freak accident when i was younger, Ive never been able to get over it. I have a prostetic arm but its no me, i lift weights and am very muscular. Lately i have been building my own prostetics. Mine arent the everyday fake hook hand, i started with building a wrist rocket arm. Then i stepped it up and now i have few other ones. Since i couldnt have a normal arm im deciding to look more into robotics and cybernetics if you hav any info on that? Is it possible to sell these inventions to someone?
Thank you for everything!

i don't think you could really sell these to anyone since im assuming you don't have a degree in robotics or engineering. if i were you i would look into engineering as a career, maybe apply to some polytech schools as they offer those kind of degrees. with a degree in engineering you'll always have a job since the world is always in need of engineers. also people will become interested in your designs and you will be able to grow upon them. but i would apply to those colleges, like worcester polytech, RPI, RIT, etc. they would prob be impressed by your designs. you could also probably get a scholarship there if you shared your story, most of those schools are very genorous ]
Hm, anything I know about electronics comes from a website called instructables.com. It's basically a site in which anyone can put up instructions on how to make anything, from making a cloth doll, to wiring a LED robot :) I doubt they'll have instructions on how to make a robotic arm, but you never know :) besides, I'm sure something on there can help you a bit. There's some pretty cool technical stuff on there, I'm always amazed at how genious these people are haha :) Also, yes you could sell it, but you might want to get it patented so no one else can steal your idea. But, as I understand it, you have to build a prototype or something to begin with before you can patent it because you have to be VERY descriptive in the patent. I really hope I helped, and I wish you the best of luck in helping yourself and others! :D
