ARE and PDE Program in Fostering and Empowering the Society
Binus Aso School of Engineering (BASE), Binus University; has committed to aim for Fostering and Emporing the Society. In specific intention, the product and innovation of ARE and PDE Program in BASE is intended to foster and empowering the society within the nation for our beloved country Negara Kesatuan Republik Indonesia (NKRI).

Students of BASE, Binus University from their early semester of First Year Engineering Semester, are encouraged to implement the concept and theory toward the implementations of product and innovation. Eventually, those implementations are intended to embark extra mile toward the fostering and empowering the society within the nation, i.e Indonesia.
The spirit of fostering and empowering the society, is the commitment of BASE, Binus University as depicted in the following article this July 2019.
Furthermore, as the illustration, the spirit of fostering and empowering the society is depicted in the video illustration of Robohand, that combines the concept of Product Design and 3D printing of PDE program and the concept of Robotics of ARE Program.
The illustration refers to
Faith Lennox lost part of her left arm when she was just nine months old. Her body’s position at the time of birth restricted the flow of blood to her arm, causing irreversible damage.
So for almost all of the 7-year-old’s life, she’s had to adapt to life with one hand – until Mark Lengsfeld, founder of California’s Build It Workspace, stepped in.
His young company (they’ve been around for less than a year) has used 3D printers to create any number of small industrial products, but decided to step into the prosthetics field, and succeeded in building Faith a new hand – for just $50, reports the Associated Press. (California State University prosthetics professor Mark Muller, who helped design the “robohand,” said that heavier variants with sensors that connect to muscles can run up to $20,000.)
Faith’s prosthetic weighs about a pound, and its affordability means it can be easily replaced, which happens once or twice a year as children outgrow their devices.
