Multichannel haptic feedback unlocks prosthetic hand dexterity [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Loss of tactile sensations is a major roadblock preventing upper limb-absent people from multitasking or using the full dexterity of their prosthetic hands. With current myoelectric prosthetic hands, limb-absent people can only control one grasp function

Adaptive Neural Decoder for Prosthetic Hand Control [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
The overarching goal was to resolve a major barrier to real-life prosthesis usability—the rapid degradation of prosthesis control systems, which require frequent recalibrations. Specifically, we sought to develop and test a motor decoder that provides (1)

Restoring natural upper limb movement through a wrist prosthetic module for partial hand amputees

open access: yesJournal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2023
Background Most partial hand amputees experience limited wrist movement. The limited rotational wrist movement deteriorates natural upper limb system related to hand use and the usability of the prosthetic hand, which may cause secondary damage to the ...
