Featured Project: Adaptive Guitar Pick

Trine University + Army Veteran Shane Heath

  • After losing his left arm and leg in Iraq, Shane struggled to play the guitar, which impacted his mental health.

  • Engineering students at Trine University developed an adaptive guitar pick that attaches to his prosthetic arm, allowing him to play more freely.

  • Shane regained the ability to play guitar, significantly improving his mental well-being. He also started a Twitch channel to share his music.
