The Electric Terminal Device (ETD) – Case Studies & Evolution

Sears, Harold H.; Iversen, Edwin (Myoelectric Symposium, 2011)
Electric Wrist Rotation In Proportional-Controlled Systems

Sears, Harold H.; Shaperman, Julie (Myoelectric Symposium, 1995)

Electric wrist rotation has been available with electric hands for approximately 20 years. Although it is integrated with the Otto Bock electric hand, via their quick-disconnected wrist component, the electric wrist has ...
EVALUATION OF A NEW FLEXION WRIST INTEGRATED WITH ELECTRIC HAND

Sears, Harold H.; Iversen, Edwin K.; Archer, Shawn (Myoelectric Symposium, 2002)

A new electric hand has been developed which integrates flexion/extension into an electric hand, with no increase in length over standard-length electric or body-powered hands. The development* has included a field trial ...
EVALUATION STUDIES OF NEW ELECTRIC TERMINAL DEVICES

Sears, Harold H.; Iversen, Edwin; Archer, Shawn; Linder, James; MacDonald, Joanna R. (Myoelectric Symposium, 2005)

Two new electric terminal devices (TDs) have been developed for use with myoelectric prostheses of the upper limb, at all levels. They each feature a quick disconnect wrist connection, so they may be interchanged with each ...
Evolution of the Utah Arm to Improve User Function

Sears, Harold H.; Iversen, Edwin; Archer, Shawn; Jacobs, Tony (Myoelectric Symposium, 2008)

An ambitious re-development of the Utah Arm was guided by direct clinical feedback, producing a list of features to improve the full-electric prostheses. The goals of the development focused on the following: • Smoother ...
Utah Arm 2: New Technologies Applied To Electric Elbow And Hand Systems

Sears, Harold H.; Iversen, Edwin; Dyck, Arthur D.; Hays, Kevin; Rivera, Caesar (Myoelectric Symposium, 1997)
Wrist Innovations To Improve Function of Electric Terminal Devices

Sears, Harold H.; Iversen, Edwin; Archer, Shawn; Jacobs, Tony (Myoelectric Symposium, 2008)

A major challenge in the development of terminal device (TD) and UE prosthetic devices is to add to the functional benefits to the wearer, without greatly increasing the weight, or complexity, or the cost of the ...
