The hands, our silent performers in daily life, face overwhelming challenges when neurological impairments disrupt the simple tasks that compose our daily symphony. This thesis unveils a comprehensive framework for the objective monitoring of upper-limb re ...
Cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) leads to permanent impairment of arm and hand functions. Here we conducted a prospective, single-arm, multicenter, open-label, non-significant risk trial that evaluated the safety and efficacy of ARCEX Therapy to improve a ...
Grasping and manipulation are challenging tasks that are nonetheless critical for many robotic systems and applications. A century ago, robots were conceived as humanoid automata. While conceptual at the time, this viewpoint remains influential today. Many ...
Current research of designing prosthetic robotic hands mainly focuses on improving their functionality by devising new mechanical structures and actuation systems. Most of existing work relies on a single structure/system (e.g., bone-only or tissue-only) a ...
Human hands play a very important role in daily object manipulation. Current prosthetic hands are capable of mimicking most functions of the human hand, but how to interact with prosthetic hands based on human intentions remains an open problem. In this ar ...
In this letter, we show that soft robotic hands provide a robust means of performing basic primitives of in-hand manipulation in the presence of uncertainty. We first discuss the design of a prototype hand with dexterous soft fingers capable of moving obje ...
Stiffness control is critical in human manipulation. The ability to transition between a low stiffness state, allowing for compliant interactions with the environment, through to rigid states, where it is possible to exert high forces, enables much functio ...

The structure of the human musculo-skeletal systems shows complex passive dynamic properties, critical for adaptive grasping and motions. Through wrist and arm actuation, these passive dynamic properties can be exploited to achieve nuanced and diverse envi ...
Stochastic stimulation has been shown to improve movement, balance, the sense of touch, and may also improve position sense. This stimulation can be non-invasive and may be a simple technology to enhance proprioception. In this study, we investigated wheth ...
