Highly functional upper-limb prostheses have been developed to restore dexterous end-effector motion, but increased mechanical functionality often leads to greater weight, more complex control schemes, and higher cost. In the absence of modular, reconfigurable robotic platforms, prosthesis selection
Upper limb prostheses do not provide proprioceptive cues to their users, which impedes performance in grasp and manipulation tasks. Various sensory substitution methods have been developed to provide prosthesis users with a sense of the device's position, orientation, and terminal device aperture. H
Physiological measures, such as pain, anxiety, effort, or energy consumption, play a crucial role in the evaluation and development of assistive robotic devices. Physiological data are collected and analyzed by researchers and clinicians, and are often used to inform an iterative tuning process of a…
