This study presents a new approach for an sEMG hand prosthesis based on a 3D printed
model with a fully embedded computer vision (CV) system in a hybrid version. A modified 5 …

The application of an optical fiber sensor on the identification of hand postures by force
myography technique is reported. The transducers are comprised of fiber microbending …

The complexity of User-Prosthesis Interfaces (UPIs) to control and select different grip
modes and gestures of active upper-limb prostheses, as well as the issues presented by the …

Goal: The development of a control system for an electromyographic shoulder disarticulation
(EMG-SD) prosthesis to rapidly achieve a task with a reduction in the operational failure of …

A prosthetic device, also known as a prosthesis, can help with rehabilitation when an arm or
other limbs is severed or lost. The upper-limb prosthesis aids restoration of motor skills …

Feed-forward control paradigms currently domi-nate upper limb prosthesis research.
Electromyographic (EMG) signals measured from muscles in a user's residual limb are …

Prostheses can alleviate some of the challenges faced by upper limb amputees in
performing activities of daily living. However, electric-powered prosthetic hands have not …

Current upper-limb prosthetic grasping methods are predominately myoelectric, where
surface electromyogram (sEMG) pattern recognition is used to predict a grasp type for a …

The force myography (FMG) is a method for retrieving the hand movements by assessing the
radial forces exerted by the forearm muscles. In this context, optical fiber transducers based …

When an arm or any other limb is severed or lost, a prosthetic device, also known as a
prosthesis, can aid rehabilitation. Given the upper-limb prosthesis contributes to the …
