Can Prosthetic Hands Mimic a Healthy Human Hand? [PDF]

open access: yesProsthesis, 2021
Historical evidence suggests that prostheses have been used since ancient Egyptian times. Prostheses were usually utilized for function and cosmetic appearances. Nowadays, with the advancement of technology, prostheses such as artificial hands can not only improve functional, but have psychological advantages as well and, therefore, can significantly ...

Stiffness and position control of a prosthetic wrist by means of an EMG interface [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this paper, we present a novel approach for decoding electromyographic signals from an amputee and for interfacing them with a prosthetic wrist. The model for the interface makes use of electromyographic signals from electrodes placed in agonistic and
