Humans can handle and manipulate objects with ease; however, human dexterity has yet to
be matched by artificial systems. Receptors in our fingers and hands provide essential tactile …

The perception of slip is one of the distinctive abilities of human tactile sensing. The sense of
touch allows recognizing a wide set of properties of a grasped object, such as shape, weight …

Adaptive sliding mode and integral sliding mode grasped object slip prevention controllers
are implemented for a prosthetic hand and compared to a proportional derivative shear force …

In closed-loop control of grasping by hand prostheses, the feedback information sent to the
user is usually the actual controlled variable, ie, the grasp force. Although this choice is …

Intelligent control of a prosthetic hand is the core to realize accurate grasping. The traditional
sensors inside the hand or finger can only give indirect information regarding the events …

Upper limb amputees lack the valuable tactile sensing that helps provide context about the
surrounding environment. Here, we utilize tactile information to provide active touch …

The detection of an object slipping within the grasp of a prosthetic hand enables the hand to
react to ensure the grasp is stable. The computer controller of a prosthetic hand needs to be …

The aim of this study was to provide a detailed account of the spatial and temporal
disruptions to eye-hand coordination when using a prosthetic hand during a sequential fine …

An unstable grasp pose can lead to slip, thus an unstable grasp pose can be predicted by
slip detection. A regrasp is required afterwards to correct the grasp pose in order to finish the …

It has been recorded that approximately over 1,564,000 individuals in the USA have
amputations, of which 900,000 have their fingers/toes or a hand amputated [1]. This would …
