Grip Force Feedback in an Electric Hand - Preliminary Results 

Sears, H.; Iversen, E.; Archer, S.; Linder, J.; Hays, K. (2008)
Feedback of sensation has long been the dream of developers (and wearers) of prosthetic hands, and many earlier efforts have made progress, but never a practical commercially-available system. Although grip force feedback ...

Cable Driven Multi-Articulating Fingers, Providing Compliant Grasp For The Partial Hand Amputee. 

Mikosz, Matthew J. (2008)
This article will describe a new concept in fitting the partial hand amputee to offer them enhanced grasp and improve their overall functional ability with the prosthesis. The concept is to activate the mechanical fingers ...

Multi-articulating Hands & Fingers – Technical Strategies for Improved Patient Function and Myoelectric Uptake 

Newman, Phil (2008)
Since the commercial release of the i-LIMB Hand in September 2007, and the subsequent R&D release of ProDigits for partial hand users, there has been much interest from clinical professionals – to date (18 March 2008), ...

Compliant Hands: The Next Evolution of the Prosthetic Hand 

Miguelez, John M. (2008)
While the last 10 years have brought significant advancements to the upper extremity prosthetic patient population, the function of prosthetic terminal devices has been limited by their inability to mimic the myriad grasping ...

DESIGN AND PRELIMINARY EXPERIENCE WITH FLUIDHAND MK III 

Schulz, Stefan; Pylatiuk, Christian; Kargov, Artem; Werner, Tino; Gaiser, Immanuel; Reischl, Markus; Oberle, Reinhold (2008)
The third generation of the fluidic hand currently is in the process of clinical trial. The new hand combines functionality and cosmesis. It has the natural shape of a human hand and multiple new functions. The grasping ...

Experience with Electric Prostheses for the Partial Hand Presentation 

Lake, Chris (2008)
Limb deficiency distal to the wrist represents a common presentation, yet a difficult level to treat with a functional prosthesis. (1) Historically, prosthetic treatment has been limited due to the lack of acceptable electric ...

ANALYSIS OF FINGER POSITION DURING TWO AND THREE-FINGERED GRASP: POSSIBLE IMPLICATIONS FOR TERMINAL DEVICE DESIGN 

Maitland, Murray E.; Epstein, Molly (2008)
Analysis of human hand kinesiology has been used to justify the design characteristics of terminal devices. The human hand is a complex mechanical structure consisting of 15 articulations controlled by over 30 muscles ...

THE WILMER PASSIVE HAND PROSTHESIS FOR TODDLERS 

Plettenburg, Dick H. (2008)
The WILMER Passive Hand Prosthesis is developed for children aged one through five years. This harnessless hand prosthesis aims primarily at giving the child two arms of equal length. The hand features an easy to control ...

Neurofuzzy Logic as a Control Algorithm for an Externally Powered Multifunctional Hand Prosthesis 

Ajiboye, Abidemi Bolu; Weir, Richard F.; Heckathorne, Craig W.; Childress, Dudley S. (2002)
We propose an algorithm based upon neurofuzzy technology. We believe that because of the inherent “fuzziness” of human activity, a control algorithm based on fuzzy logic may have advantages for multifunctional prosthesis ...

Michelangelo 03 - A versatile hand prosthesis, featuring superb controllability and sophisticated bio mimicry 

Puchhammer, Gregor (2008)
Rapid progress has been made recently in all components of upper limb myoelectric prosthetics, and revolutionary new concepts in controlling these devices are part of ongoing R&D activities. Nevertheless there is a need ...
