Replacing human hand function with prostheses goes far beyond only recreating muscle
movement with feedforward motor control. Natural sensory feedback is pivotal for fine …

Haptic devices typically rely on rigid actuators and bulky power supply systems, limiting
wearability. Soft materials improve comfort, but careful distribution of stiffness is required to …

Transtibial amputees face challenges such as loss of proprioception and fluctuations in the
size and composition of their residual limb, which can compromise comfort and mobility. This …

This paper examines the role of proximity sensors and haptic motors in current upper limb
myoelectric prostheses. Over the last decade several haptic gloves have been developed …
