    This study introduces a myo-electric prosthesis with sensory feedback for below-elbow amputees. Training enabled patients to control the prosthetic hand and utilize touch sensations for daily activities.

    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Rehabilitation Medicine
    • Prosthetics and Orthotics

    Background:

    • Below-elbow amputations present challenges in restoring hand function and sensory perception.
    • Existing prosthetic technologies often lack integrated sensory feedback, limiting intuitive control and user experience.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and evaluate a myo-electrically controlled prosthesis with a sensory feedback mechanism for below-elbow amputees.
    • To establish and assess a training protocol for patients using this advanced prosthetic limb.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a myo-electric prosthesis incorporating a sensory feedback system for touch and grip force.
    • Establishment of a comprehensive training protocol focusing on myo-electric signal generation and sensory feedback interpretation.
