TNSRE serves the community of biomedical engineers and clinical researchers who work at the intersection of neuroscience and physical medicine. We publish novel approaches and technologies for better understanding neural systems, human movement, and the relationships between them, with a focus on assistive devices that improve life for patients, for practicing clinicians, and for everyday use.
Daniel A. Bennett (S’11) received his B.S. and M.S. degrees in mechanical engineering from Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland OH, in 2009 and 2010, respectively, and his Ph.D. in mechanical engineering from Vanderbilt University, Nashville TN, in 2016. His research interests include the design and control of bio-mimetic robotic devices: specifically, the de-velopment of upper extremity prosthetic devices.
This paper describes a control method intended to facilitate improved control of a myoelectric prosthesis containing a wrist rotator. Rather than exclusively utilize electromyogram (EMG) for the control of all myoelectric components (e.g., a hand and a wrist), the proposed...
