Improving the arm-hand coordination in neuroprosthetics control with prior information from muscle activity

Iason Batzianoulis

Humans use their hands mainly for grasping and manipulating objects, performing simple and dexterous tasks. The loss of a hand may significantly affect one's working status and independence in daily life. A restoration of the grasping ability is important ...

Sensory feedback restoration in leg amputees improves walking speed, metabolic cost and phantom pain

Silvestro Micera, Stanisa Raspopovic, Francesco Maria Petrini, Giacomo Valle, Federica Barberi, Dario Bortolotti

Conventional leg prostheses do not convey sensory information about motion or interaction with the ground to aboveknee amputees, thereby reducing confidence and walking speed in the users that is associated with high mental and physical fatigue(1-4). The l ...

Bio-inspired design and validation of the Efficient Lockable Spring Ankle (ELSA) prosthesis

Mohamed Bouri, Bruno Dehez, Renaud Ronsse, François André Heremans

Over the last decade, active lower-limb prostheses demonstrated their ability to restore a physiological gait for transfemoral amputees by supplying the required positive energy balance during daily life locomotion activities. However, the added-value of s ...

A closed-loop hand prosthesis with simultaneous intraneural tactile and position feedback

Edoardo D'Anna, Silvestro Micera, Stanisa Raspopovic, Francesco Maria Petrini, Ivo Strauss, Giacomo Valle, Francesco Iberite

Current myoelectric prostheses allow transradial amputees to regain voluntary motor control of their artificial limb by exploiting residual muscle function in the forearm. However, the overreliance on visual cues resulting from a lack of sensory feedback i ...

Development of a simulated transtibial amputee model

Auke Ijspeert, Florin Dzeladini, Ricardo Cesar Guerrero Ferreira, César José Cardoso Ferreira

Currently, there are more than 30 million amputees in the world and each year thousands of people suffer from amputation and, therefore, the development of lower limb prostheses is crucial to improve the quality of millions of people's lives by restoring t ...

Spatiotemporal stimulation strategies in neuroprostheses to improve locomotion after spinal cord injury

Jérôme Gandar

Spinal cord injury (SCI) disrupts communication within central nervous system and lead to range of neurological disorders including paralysis. Current rehabilitation strategies to restore locomotion are poorly effective in people with severe SCI. Epidural ...

Shared human–robot proportional control of a dexterous myoelectric prosthesis

Aude Billard, Edoardo D'Anna, Nicolas Sommer, Silvestro Micera, Emanuele Formento, Saurav Aryan, Vincent Alexandre Mendez, Francesco Maria Petrini, Fiorenzo Artoni, Katie Zhi Zhuang

Myoelectric prostheses allow users to recover lost functionality by controlling a robotic device with their remaining muscle activity. Such commercial devices can give users a high level of autonomy, but still do not approach the dexterity of the intact hu ...

Enhancing functional abilities and cognitive integration of the lower limb prosthesis

Silvestro Micera, Stanisa Raspopovic, Francesco Maria Petrini, Giacomo Valle, Federica Barberi, Dario Bortolotti

Lower limb amputation (LLA) destroys the sensory communication between the brain and the external world during standing and walking. Current prostheses do not restore sensory feedback to amputees, who, relying on very limited haptic information from the st ...

Designing sensory feedback approaches for restoring touch and position feedback in upper limb amputees

Edoardo D'Anna

Upper limb amputation disrupts most daily activities and reduces the quality of life of affected individuals. Building a suitable prosthetic limb, which can restore at least some of the lost capabilities, is a goal which has been pursued for centuries. In ...

Knee Implant Loosening Detection: A Vibration Analysis Investigation

Kamiar Aminian, Hossein Rouhani, Arash Arami

Knee implant loosening is mainly caused by the weakness of the prosthesis-bone interface and is the main reason for surgical revisions. However, pre-operative diagnosis is difficult due to lack of accurate tests. In this study, we developed a vibration-bas ...

Prosthetic Control and Sensory Feedback for Upper Limb Amputees

Huaiqi Huang

Hand amputation could dramatically degrade the life quality of amputees. Many amputees use prostheses to restore part of the hand functions. Myoelectric prosthesis provides the most dexterous control. However, they are facing high rejection rate. One of th ...
