Virtual Control of Prosthetic Hand Based on Grasping Patterns and Estimated Force from Semg

ITM Web of Conferences, 2016
Myoelectric prosthetic hands aim to serve upper limb amputees. The myoelectric control of the hand grasp action is a kind of real-time or online method. Thus it is of great necessity to carry on a study of online prosthetic hand electrical control.

Passive prosthetic hands and tools [PDF]

Prosthetics & Orthotics International, 2018
The group of passive prostheses consists of prosthetic hands and prosthetic tools. These can either be static or adjustable. Limited research and development on passive prostheses has been performed although many people use these prosthesis types. Although some publications describe passive prostheses, no recent review of the peer-reviewed literature ...

Effects of Symmetry and Apparent Distance in a Parasagittal-Mirror Variant of the Rubber Hand Illusion Paradigm

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
When I see my face in a mirror, its apparent position (behind the glass) is not one that my own face could be in. I accept the face I see as my own because I have an implicit understanding of how mirrors work.

Muscle Spindle Model-Based Non-Invasive Electrical Stimulation for Motion Perception Feedback in Prosthetic Hands

IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering
Prosthetic hands offer significant benefits for patients with hand amputations by partially replicating the function of real hands. However, most current prosthetics lack sensory feedback on movement, leading to a gap in proprioception for users.

Hand Transplantation Versus Hand Prosthetics: Pros and Cons [PDF]

Current Surgery Reports, 2016
Composite tissue transplantation and new developments in the field of prosthetics have opened new frontiers in the restoration of function among upper limb amputees. It is now possible to restore hand function in affected patients; however, the indications, advantages, and limitations for either hand transplantation or prosthetic fitting must be ...

Microstructural Evolution and In Situ Formation of TiB and TiC in Ti─5Al─2.5Sn Alloy Processed by Powder Metallurgy

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Accelerated in situ formation of TiB and TiC in Ti–5Al–2.5Sn–B4C is driven by transient liquid phase formation, which enhances particle reactions and microstructural evolution. This process increases hardness and establishes a coupled relationship between sintering temperature and reinforcement content, strongly influencing porosity in the resulting ...
