Automated anthropometry measurement system for designing improved prosthetics

A method of calculating features of a prosthetic hand, comprising:

• receiving, from one or more measurement devices, one or more scans of a hand of a subject;
• identifying a plurality of landmark positions on the hand by performing an imaging analysis of the one or more scans;
• determining a plurality of measurements related to one or more of a plurality of fingers of the hand based on one or more of the identified landmark positions;
• and
• generating a point cloud of the plurality of determined measurements.

An apparatus, comprising:

• a body frame of a prosthetic hand;
• and
• a plurality of finger frames connected to the body frame, each of the plurality of finger frames being formed of multiple segments connected by ball and socket joints,
• wherein the plurality of finger frames are configured to bend and rotate relative to the joints and to maintain a position in which the finger frames are positioned.
