Sensory feedback for upper limb prostheses.
In this chapter, we discuss the neurophysiological basis of how to provide sensory feedback to users with an upper limb prosthesis and discuss some of the theoretical issues that need to be considered when directly stimulating neurons in the somatosensory system. We focus on technologies that are currently available and discuss approaches that are most likely to succeed in providing natural per...
متن کاملSensory feedback in upper limb prosthetics.
One of the challenges facing prosthetic designers and engineers is to restore the missing sensory function inherit to hand amputation. Several different techniques can be employed to provide amputees with sensory feedback: sensory substitution methods where the recorded stimulus is not only transferred to the amputee, but also translated to a different modality (modality-matched feedback), whic...
متن کاملA sensory feedback system for an upper-limb amputation prosthesis.
A project to provide sensation from an upper-limb amputation prosthesis has been underway at Duke University since early 1971 . This was initially made possible through the generosity of Mrs . Carlton Hooks of Thomasville, North Carolina, who provided funds for a pilot study. Since December 1, 1972, the project has been aided by contract from the Veterans Administration with an expected termina...
متن کاملProstheses in Upper Limb Treatment: Recent Developivients
A trauma or congenital pathology may seriously compromise the performance of upper limbs from an operative standpoint and informally, tluough sensitivity. These special aspects show how difficult it is to develop an artificial limb capable to reply important functions, such as for example: eating, independence in the batluoom and so on In order to carry out a good treatment with orthopaedic dev...
متن کاملOn sensory feedback in hand prostheses
Amputation of the hand implies the loss of the ability to grasp and the ability to "feel". The grasping function can be primitively restored using an active prosthesis. Multiarticulating electrically powered hands have recently made their way to the market and these hands provide enhanced grasping and gripping capabilities. However, these hands provide no direct and conscious sensory feedback ...
