Text:

I'm a student of prosthetics and orthotics at UT-Southwestern, and I'm
working on my senior project. My idea is to use a commercially available
material called muscle wire in an upper extremity prosthesis. Muscle wire
is a type of shape-memory-alloy that shortens when electricity is passed
through it. I'm presently gathering research information and would
appreciate input from anyone concerning muscle wire or similar projects.
Thanks in advance, Zach Harvey
