  1. 11. sEMG Classication with Convolutional Neural Networks: A Multi-Label Approach for Prosthetic Hand Control

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Alexander Olsson; [2018]
    Keywords : Electromyography; Machine Learning; Deep Learning; Gesture Recognition; Neural Networks; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In myoelectric prosthesis design, there is often a trade-off between control robustness and range of executable movements. As a low movement error rate is necessary in any real application, this often results in a quite severe limitation on the dexterity of the user. READ MORE

  3. 12. Development of an electromyographic smart prosthetic hand

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Jacob Parming; Aram Ghaiad; [2018]
    Keywords : Prosthetic hand; Electromyography; Finger; Thumb;

    Abstract : Losing a hand is a highly traumatic experience affecting both the physical life and mental wellbeing of a person. It is therefore vital to provide a prosthetic hand with similar functionality to the hand lost. READ MORE

  4. 13. The CB-hand

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

    Author : Daniel Blomstrand; Erik Skarrie; [2018]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The purpose of the thesis was to design and build an externally powered prosthetic hand. The hand should preferably have one or more new functionalities not found in other prostheses. The human hand is very complex, it contains over 30 muscles and at least 18 joints. READ MORE

  5. 14. Investigating the use of multi-label classification methods for the purpose of classifying electromyographic signals

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Petter Björklund; [2018]
    Keywords : Biomedical engineering; Statistical classification; Prosthetics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The type of pattern recognition methods used for controlling modern prosthetics, referred to here as single-label classification methods, restricts users to a small amount of movements. One prominent reason for this is that the accuracy of these classification methods decreases as the number of allowed movements is increased. READ MORE

  6. 15. Myoelectric Prosthetic Hand

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för ekonomi, teknik och naturvetenskap

    Author : Konni Lindström; Vedran Zurapovic; [2018]
    Keywords : myoelectrcity; prosthetic; prosthetics; prosthesis; mechanically actuated;

    Abstract : This thesis is a development project for a myoelectric prosthetic hand. That means a mechanical hand that is controlled and actuated by the user's own muscles on the residual limb. The thesis has led to a theoretical concept of a complete prosthesis and a non-complete physical prototype that provides proof of concept and functions. READ MORE
