Abstract: The aim of this paper is to create a system that enables power transmission non-backdrivability in a hand prosthesis with a single actuator. This system allows the motor to be stopped while maintaining the gripping force ...

Abstract: This work proposed the design of a simple, robust, and inexpensive motion transmission for hand prostheses. The main challenge to be solved is to generate not only fast movements for the closing of the fingers during the ...

Abstract: This work introduced a new hand prosthesis architecture able to achieve an opposite and lateral grasp by using a single actuator. An analysis of the hand prostheses, as well as the movements classically performed in daily ...
