AI-Summary
What this Trial Is About
The investigators propose to validate a non-invasive upper limb prosthesis capable of combining: 1) intuitive movement control through machine learning applied to myoelectric signals, and 2) vibrotactile sensory feedback in response to touch and object release events. The prosthesis is composed at the minimum of skin-surface electrodes for myoelectric signals, vibrotactile actuators, a multi-articulated and instrumented hand prosthesis and a centralized control system. Such system is validated for several weeks in non-supervised environments.
