This study has been undertaken to help partially amputed people to gain better psychological outlook in life. Most of the EEG and EMG prosthetic hands have several shortcomings such as low intensity, high cost and blocked them from practical realization. The present proposal proposes a novel method of providing a user friendly and cost effective device for partially amputed people. The program of the device was done by using an Arduino microcontroller. This novel device can help a partially amputed person to lead a normal life in society and gain his self-esteem. The cost of the device is three times low as compared to the marketed device which has less option and heavy weight. This cost effective device was designed with limited number of sensors and motors in order to achieve its compactness and it would also produce more number of hand movements much similar to the original hand.
