How it works?

Activity: Pinch Measurement

1. The prototype

Figure 1: The prototype before switch ON

2. Ready to measure pinch force

Figure 2: The Digital Pinch Meter begin the operation

3. The data collect and display on LCD

Figure 3: Pinch force is detect. 40N

This digital pinch meter able to detect force range from 0N until 100N. However, the normal hand pinch is between 22.26N until 89N. Below than that it can be classify as loss muscle or hand nonfunctional.
