  1. 1. Implementations and evaluation of machine learning algorithms on a microcontroller unit for myoelectric prosthesis control

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Jonathan Benitez; [2023]
    Keywords : microcontroller; deep learning; artificial neural network; electromyography; myoelectric prosthesis; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Using a microcontroller unit to implement different machine learning algorithms for myoelectric prosthesis control is currently feasible. Still there are hardware and timing constraints that need to be accounted for. READ MORE

  3. 2. A Flexible, Low-cost Approach to Slippage Detection using Pyroelectricity

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

    Author : Anders Robin Larsson; [2020]
    Keywords : pyroelectricity; slippage detection; pvdf;

    Abstract : Myoelectric prosthesis on the market today are mostly very expensive and rarely allow the amputee any feedback, leaving the users separated from their own robotic arm. Integrating sensory systems into an arm which needs to be replaced several times during a lifetime may also not be cost efficient. READ MORE

  4. 3. Assessment of function of a 3D-printed body-powered upper limb prosthetic device

    University essay from Högskolan i Jönköping/HHJ, Avd. för rehabilitering

    Author : Adam Broman; Gustav Blom; [2019]
    Keywords : RIT-arm; hand function; Box and block test; nine-hole peg test; OPUS;

    Abstract : Purpose Conventional arm-prosthesis are expensive to make and therefore limit the availability for users on the geographical locations there the user pays for it. This study compares the hand function of a 3D-printed prosthesis with lower production cost with a traditional prosthesis. READ MORE

  5. 4. 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

  6. 5. 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
