Control of a Multi-finger Prosthetic Hand
نویسندگان
چکیده
Our novel prosthetic hand is controlled by extrinsic flexor muscles and tendons of the metacarpal-phalangeal joints. The hand uses tendon-activated pneumatic (TAP) control and has provided most subjects, including amputees and those with congenital limb absence, control of multiple fingers of the hand. The TAP hand restores a degree of natural control over force, duration, and coordination of multiple finger movements. An operable hand will be demonstrated.

Multi-finger myoelectric signals for controlling a virtual robotic prosthetic hand
The paper investigates how multi-finger myoelectric signals could be used to control a virtual robotic prosthetic hand created by using robot operating system (ROS). Both off-line and online experiment phases are conducted by using ten electrodes and performing eight selected multi-finger motions on four healthy subjects. Classification accuracy and confusion matrix of eight time domain (TD)-fe...
متن کاملSliding Mode Control of a Finger for a Prosthetic Hand
A prosthetic finger model, intended to imitate a real human hand and for use in replacing the real index finger of an amputee, is designed using tendons instead of joint motors. A dynamic model of the prosthetic finger model is developed, and a non-chattering robust sliding mode control is applied to make the model follow a certain trajectory. Trajectory planning of the finger model is based on...
متن کاملRobust Control of a Prosthetic Hand Based on a Hybrid Adaptive Finger Angle Estimation
This paper presents a robust control approach to control the movement of a prosthetic hand based on an estimation of the finger angles using surface electromyographic (sEMG) signals. All the available prosthesis uses the motion control strategy which is pre-programmed get initiated when some threshold value of the measured sEMG signal is reached for a particular motion set. Here we use a novel ...
متن کاملRobust Control of a Prosthetic Hand Finger
In this study, first, human hand anatomy is investigated dynamically. The tendon configuration of the fingers are also introduced and then modeled to imitate a real human hand index finger in the study because the actuating elements of the fingers are tendons on the phalanges. The prosthetic hand finger model is aimed to replace a real index finger of an amputated human. Therefore, artificial t...
متن کاملProof of Concept of an Online EMG-Based Decoding of Hand Postures and Individual Digit Forces for Prosthetic Hand Control
INTRODUCTION Options currently available to individuals with upper limb loss range from prosthetic hands that can perform many movements, but require more cognitive effort to control, to simpler terminal devices with limited functional abilities. We attempted to address this issue by designing a myoelectric control system to modulate prosthetic hand posture and digit force distribution. METHO...
