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.

Perception, 2008 There are more than forty million blind individuals in the world whose plight would be greatly ameliorated by creating a visual prosthesis. We begin by outlining the basic operational characteristics of the visual system, as this knowledge is essential for producing a prosthetic device based on electrical stimulation through arrays of implanted ...
