Sensory impairments decrease quality of life and can slow or hinder rehabilitation. Small,
computationally powerful electronics have enabled the recent development of wearable …

Wearable sensing gloves and sensory feedback devices that record and enhance the
sensations of the hand are used in healthcare, prosthetics, robotics, and virtual reality …

This work assesses the ability of transradial amputees to discriminate multi-site tactile stimuli
in sensory discrimination tasks. It compares different sensory feedback modalities using an …

We present a wearable forearm augmentation that enables the recreation of natural touch
sensation by applying shear-forces onto the skin. In contrast to previous approaches, we …

The aim of this paper was to demonstrate the functionality of an inexpensive mechanotactile
sensory feedback system for transhumeral myoelectric prostheses. We summarize the …

Electro-or vibro-tactile stimulations were used in the past to provide sensory information in
many different applications ranging from human manual control to prosthetics. The two …

Squeezing sensations are one of the most common and intimate forms of human contact. In
this paper, we investigate HapticClench, a device that generates squeezing sensations …

Purpose: This study explores the possibilities of transferring peripheral tactile stimulations
from an artificial hand to the forearm skin. Method: A tactile display applied to the forearm …

A sense of touch is essential for amputees to reintegrate into their social and work life. The
design of the next generation of the prostheses will have the ability to effectively convey the …

Background Transcutaneous electrical stimulation can provide amputees with tactile
feedback for better manipulating an advanced prosthesis. In general, there are two ways to …
