Synergistic prostheses enable the coordinated movement of the human-prosthetic arm, as
required by activities of daily living. This is achieved by coupling the motion of the prosthesis …

Current prosthesis command interfaces only allow for a single degree of freedom to be
commanded at a time, making coordinated motion difficult to achieve. Thus it becomes …

An interface for a powered upper limb prosthesis is designed to achieve the target poses
intended by the human user as interpreted from input features measured from a variety of …

A Human-Prosthetic Interface (HPI) serves to estimate and realise the limb pose intended by
the human user, using the information obtained from sensors worn by the user. In recent …

C5/C6 tetraplegic patients and transhumeral amputees may be able to use voluntary
shoulder motion as command signals for a functional electrical stimulation system or …

Synergies have been adopted in prosthetic limb applications to reduce the complexity of
design, but typically involve a single synergy setting for a population and ignore individual …

Objective. Myoelectric activity volitionally generated by the user is often used for controlling
hand prostheses in order to replicate the synergistic actions of muscles in healthy humans …

This paper presents a review of a number of bio-sensing methods for gesture intent signal
acquisition in control tasks for upper-limb prosthesis. The paper specifically provides a …

Limb-driven control allows for direct control by using residual limb movements rather than
unnatural and complex muscle activation. Existing limb-driven methods simultaneously …

This article describes the design and evaluation of two comprehensive strategies for
endpoint-based control of multiarticulated powered upper-limb prostheses. One method …
