Abstract: A new High-Order Fully Actuated Sliding Mode Control (HOFA-SMC) method is created in this study to precisely control the motion of a fully actuated robotic hand. Our method uses a nonlinear ...

Abstract: One of the main problems in the prosthetic hand design is to provide the hand with a reliable system for force and slippage control. The real-time detection of an object slippage during ...

Modern bionic hand prostheses nearly match their natural counterparts when it comes to dexterity, degrees of freedom, and capability. And many amputees who tried advanced bionic hands apparently ...

Researchers have built a prosthetic hand that, with the help of artificial intelligence, can act a lot more like a natural one. The key is to have the hand recognize when the user wants to do ...

Samoana Matagi was one of the four participants in a study that tested the capabilities of a new bionic hand. Here, Matagi wears the bionic hand on one arm and a common prosthetic called a ...

When Jackson Farmer was in kindergarten at Red Cross Elementary School in Glasgow, Kentucky, one of his teachers noticed that he would often come to school wearing a rubber hand. Farmer was born ...

SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — Engineers with the University of Utah are developing prosthetic hands that can more intuitively grasp small objects. “As lifelike as bionic arms are becoming, controlling them ...

The miniaturization and integration of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) have progressively expanded the capabilities of advanced prosthetic hands, enabling not only the replication of human ...

Scientists are using artificial intelligence to help bionic limbs act more like natural ones. NPR's Jon Hamilton reports on an experimental hand that shares control with the user to carry out tricky ...
