Psychometric characterization of incidental feedback sources during grasping with a hand prosthesis
Background A prosthetic system should ideally reinstate the bidirectional communication between the user’s brain and its end effector by restoring both motor and sensory functions lost after an amputation. However, current commercial prostheses generally

Studies on the feasibility of a subretinal visual prosthesis: data from Yucatan micropig and rabbit
Background: To estimate the feasibility of the subretinal concept of a visual prosthesis, animal models and prototypes, each representing a certain aspect of the final prosthesis, were utilised to test for requirements for such a medical device: (1) the ...

Does EMG control lead to distinct motor adaptation?
Powered prostheses are controlled using electromyographic (EMG) signals, which may introduce high levels of uncertainty even for simple tasks. According to Bayesian theories, higher uncertainty should influence how the brain adapts motor commands in ...
