DEVELOPMENT OF A CLINICALLY VIABLE MULTIFUNCTIONAL HAND PROSTHESIS

Mitchell, Michael; Weir, Richard F. (Myoelectric Symposium, 2008)

We have developed a new multifunctional hand mechanism in the hopes of providing a new mechanism that will have superior function over today’s single degree-of-freedom (DOF) mechanisms and yet be robust enough to be ...
A NEW ELECTRIC SYSTEM WITH SIMULTANEOUS ELBOW & HAND CONTROL

Sears, Harold; Iversen, Edwin; Hays, Kevin; Madsen, Ron (Myoelectric Symposium, 2005)

The evolution of electric prosthetic systems has resulted in the widespread transition to digital controllers, i.e., microprocessors. In fact, it may be true that every available electronic controller in the field of ...
SOFTWARE UNDERACTUACTION FOR REDUCED INPUT CONTROL OF LARGE DEGREE OF FREEDOM STRUCTURES: DEVELOPMENT OF A HAND CONTROL STRATEGY FOR ADVANCED UPPER EXTREMITY PROSTHETICS

Kuniholm, J.; Clark, R.L. (Myoelectric Symposium, 2008)

Pattern recognition strategies have been explored for prosthetic hand control for over 20 years, but have not been commercially implemented. [1] Articulated research hands now rival human hand articulation, presenting ...
