	%X A 2-Degrees of freedom powered prosthetic wrist
actuator has been proposed that can provide the Abduction/Adduction
& Flexion/Extension movements of the human wrist. The basic
structure of the actuator is a Ball and Socket joint and the force is
transmitted from the DC geared servo motors to the joint through the
Bowden cables. The proposed design is capable of providing the
required DOF in both axes i.e. 85° & 90° in flexion extension axis.
The size and weight of the actuator lies within the ranges of an
average human being-s wrist.
