Soft robotics is an exciting field of science and technology that enables robots to manipulate
objects with human-like dexterity. Soft robots can handle delicate objects with care, access …

The journey of a prosthetic user is characterized by the opportunities and the limitations of a
device that should enable activities of daily living (ADL). In particular, experiencing a bionic …

Myoelectric control for prosthetic hands is an important topic in the field of rehabilitation.
Intuitive and intelligent myoelectric control can help amputees to regain upper limb function …

This manuscript reviews historical and recent studies that focus on supplementary sensory
feedback for use in upper limb prostheses. It shows that the inability of many studies to …

Early research on physical human–robot interaction (pHRI) has necessarily focused on
device design—the creation of compliant and sensorized hardware, such as exoskeletons …

Myoelectric signals (MES) have been used in various applications, in particular, for
identification of user intention to potentially control assistive devices for amputees, orthotic …

In muscle-computer interface (MCI), deep learning is a promising technology to build-up
classifiers for recognizing gestures from surface electromyography (sEMG) signals …

Wearable devices are a fast-growing technology with impact on personal healthcare for both
society and economy. Due to the widespread of sensors in pervasive and distributed …

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 …

User acceptance of myoelectric forearm prostheses is currently low. Awkward control, lack of
feedback, and difficult training are cited as primary reasons. Recently, researchers have …
