In order to provide therapy in a functional context, controls for wearable robotic orthoses need to be robust and intuitive. We have previously introduced an intuitive, user-driven, EMG-based method to operate a robotic hand orthosis, but the process of training a control that is robust to concept d…
We present a method for EMG-driven teleoperation of non-anthropomorphic robot hands. EMG sensors are appealing as a wearable, inexpensive, and unobtrusive way to gather information about the teleoperator's hand pose. However, mapping from EMG signals to the pose space of a non-anthropomorphic hand p…
Wearable robotic hand rehabilitation devices can allow greater freedom and flexibility than their workstation-like counterparts. However, the field is generally lacking effective methods by which the user can operate the device: such controls must be effective, intuitive, and robust to the wide rang
Human-in-the-loop manipulation is useful in when autonomous grasping is not able to deal sufficiently well with corner cases or cannot operate fast enough. Using the teleoperator's hand as an input device can provide an intuitive control method but requires mapping between pose spaces which may not…
