    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Robotics
    • Prosthetics

    Background:

    • Upper limb prostheses face high abandonment rates due to combined low function and heavy weight.
    • Increased functionality in prosthetics often leads to added weight from motors and batteries.
    • Robotic emulators, successful in lower limb studies, offer a way to decouple weight and function.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To design and evaluate a novel prosthetic emulator for transradial (below elbow) prostheses.
    • To explore human-centered designs and control strategies by decoupling device weight and functionality.
    • To create a test-bed for identifying optimal transradial prosthesis specifications and human-robot interaction.

    Main Methods:

    • Designed a lightweight transradial prosthetic emulator weighing half of a physiological arm.
    • Integrated two active wrist movements and active power grasping capabilities.
    • Presented the detailed design and system performance of the prosthetic arm emulator.

    Main Results:

    • The emulator successfully decouples weight from functionality, weighing significantly less than typical prosthetic arms.
    • The system incorporates active wrist movements and power grasping, offering enhanced functional capabilities.
    • Detailed design and performance data are presented for future research and development.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed prosthetic emulator serves as a valuable test-bed for transradial prostheses.
    • It facilitates research into human-centered designs, optimal control strategies, and human-robot interaction.
    • This approach can help reduce prosthesis abandonment by addressing weight and functionality limitations.
