An Empirical Evaluation of Force Feedback in Body-Powered Prostheses
Jeremy D. Brown, Timothy S. Kunz, Duane Gardner, Mackenzie K. Shelley, Alicia J. Davis, R. Brent Gillespie
Myoelectric prostheses have many advantages over body-powered prostheses, yet the absence of sensory feedback in myoelectric devices is one reason body-powered devices are often preferred by amputees. While considerable progress has been made in the mechanical design and control of...
