Research Abstract |
In this study, we aimed to develop a more sophisticated lightweight myoelectric prosthetic hand premising contact with humans. We used a five-fingered robot hand driven by our original pneumatic actuators for the myoelectric prosthetic hand with safety in mind. After we constructed control systems for performance characteristics and disturbance in the pneumatic actuators as well as the motion discrimination method of hands and fingers, we established the fundamental design method of pneumatically-driven myoelectric prosthetic hand with two-degree-of-freedom wrist and thumb palmar adduction function as results of validating those effectivenesses by experiments.
