Power

With the thumb opposed, all four fingers close into 
the palm until they meet resistance or the close signal 
stops. When fingers are approaching a fully closed 
position, the thumb drives in to cover the fingers for 
additional grip security. This pattern allows round 
objects such as a ball or a piece of fruit to be held 
securely. This grip can also provide a handshake. 
Cylindrical shaped objects such as bottles, home 
and garden utensil handles are also held easily and 
securely.

Tripod

When the thumb is opposed, the hand closes into 
Tripod Grip with index and middle fingers meeting the 
thumb. Ring and little fingers continue to close until 
they meet resistance or the close signal stops. This type 
of grip allows users to pick up, hold and manipulate a 
variety of everyday objects such as car keys, coins, jar 
lids and pens.

Hook

With the thumb in opposed position, a partially closed 
Power Grip provides Hook Grip. This is ideal for 
carrying a shopping bag or briefcase. Hook Grip can 
also be achieved by closing the fingers from the relaxed 
hand position.

Finger Adduction

The fingers of the bebionic hand move together 
naturally as the fingers close. This allows the user 
to securely grip thin objects, such as cutlery or a 
toothbrush, between the fingers to achieve function in a 
different plane. Finger Adduction is most functional with 
the hand in Power Grip but can also be achieved with 
the hand in Key Grip and Pinch Grip.
