Current Solutions and Future Trends for Robotic Prosthetic Hands

Silvestro Micera, Solaiman Shokur, Vincent Alexandre Mendez, Francesco Iberite

The desire for functional replacement of a missing hand is an ancient one. Historically, humans have replaced a missing limb with a prosthesis for cosmetic, vocational, or personal autonomy reasons. The hand is a powerful tool, and its loss causes severe p ...
