Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Poster Description
The purpose of this project is to design and built an external assistive device in the form of a cybernetic glove, which improves a user’s ability to grasp, hold and manipulate. Uses for this glove extends to medical, sport, commercial and industrial applications. The initial target market, are female users that have lost strength from nerve or muscle damage due to aging, injury, and disease. The student team, six engineering seniors, have scaled this project to function within a budget of $1,500. The market currently exists for a device like this and it is underserved. Future development in materials and price reduction in fabrication will enable this team to standardize this product for commercial use in sports rehabilitation, nursing homes, retail environments, and factories.
