| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study is to develop a low cost and lightweight prosthetic hands with a cosmetic glove and grasping function. We conducted the following research to develop the hand. 1)Flexible cosmetic glove with realistic appearance, 2)Wire-driven five-fingered electric prosthetic Hand, 3)Five-fingered prosthetic hand driven with curved pneumatic artificial muscles, 4)Hand motion estimation using a distance sensor array. The effectiveness of the hands was verified with user tests in which an amputee participated.
