Visual enhancement of touch and the bodily self [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We experience our own body through both touch and vision. We further see that others’ bodies are similar to our own body, but we have no direct experience of touch on others’ bodies.

Soft Pneumatic Prosthetic Hand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Conventional prosthetic devices are heavy, expensive and rigid. They are complex, fragile and require sophisticated control strategies in order to deal with the grasping and manipulation tasks. In this paper we propose a new pneumatic soft prosthetic hand that is very simple to control due to its compliant structure and cheap in production.

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

PCA and deep learning based myoelectric grasping control of a prosthetic hand

open access: yesBioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2018
Background For the functional control of prosthetic hand, it is insufficient to obtain only the motion pattern information. As far as practicality is concerned, the control of the prosthetic hand force is indispensable.

Hand Prosthesis Sensorimotor Control Inspired by the Human Somatosensory System

open access: yesRobotics, 2023
Prosthetic hand systems aim at restoring lost functionality in amputees. Manipulation and grasping are the main functions of the human hand, which are provided by skin sensitivity capable of protecting the hand from damage and perceiving the external ...

Use of accelerometers in the control of practical prosthetic arms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Accelerometers can be used to augment the control of powered prosthetic arms. They can detect the orientation of the joint and limb and the controller can correct for the amount of torque required to move the limb.

Passive prosthetic hands and tools [PDF]

open access: yesProsthetics & 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 ...
