Haptic Shared Control Improves Neural Efficiency During Myoelectric Prosthesis Use [PDF]
, 2022 Clinical myoelectric prostheses lack the sensory feedback and sufficient dexterity required to complete activities of daily living efficiently and accurately. Providing haptic feedback of relevant environmental cues to the user or imbuing the prosthesis with autonomous control authority have been separately shown to improve prosthesis utility.
