Compliant grasp in a myoelectric hand prosthesis.

Compliant grasp in a myoelectric hand prosthesis.

A novel myoelectric hand prosthesis consisting of electromyogram (EMG) signal processing units, a microprocessor-based dc motor servo system, and a 1 degree-of-freedom (DOF) end effector has been developed. The flexion angle and compliance of the finger of this prosthesis can be voluntarily controll...
