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 …

Neuroprosthetics is a discipline that aims at restoring lost functions to people affected by a
variety of neurological disorders or neurotraumatic lesions. It combines the expertise of …

Current myoelectric hands are limited in their ability to provide effective sensory feedback to
the users, which highly affects their functionality and utility. Although the sensory information …

Objective: The bidirectional communication between the user and the prosthesis is an
important requirement when developing prosthetic hands. Proprioceptive feedback is …

Tactile feedback is critical for distinguishing different object properties. We determined if
tactile feedback evoked by transcutaneous nerve stimulation can be used to detect objects …

State-of-the-art myoelectric hand prostheses provide multi-functional control but lack
somatosensory feedback. To accommodate the full functionality of a dexterous prosthesis …

Objective. Proprioceptive information plays an important role for recognizing and
coordinating our limb's static and dynamic states relative to our body or the environment. In …

Electro-and vibro-tactile stimulation are commonly employed for feedback in closed-loop
human-machine interfacing. Although these feedback systems have been extensively …

Haptics, or the sense of touch, is critical in hand prostheses since providing haptic feedback
can significantly enhance control. Research on haptic feedback for upper limb prostheses …

Introduction In recent years, hand prostheses achieved relevant improvements in term of
both motor and functional recovery. However, the rate of devices abandonment, also due to …
