Intraneural sensory feedback restores grip force control and motor coordination while using a prosthetic hand

Silvestro Micera, Francesco Maria Petrini, Ivo Strauss, Giacomo Valle, Francesco Iberite

Objective. Tactile afferents in the human hand provide fundamental information about hand-environment interactions, which is used by the brain to adapt the motor output to the physical properties of the object being manipulated. A hand amputation disrupts ...

Optimal integration of intraneural somatosensory feedback with visual information: a single-case study

Silvestro Micera, Ivo Strauss, Giacomo Valle, Francesco Iberite

Providing somatosensory feedback to amputees is a long-standing objective in prosthesis research. Recently, implantable neural interfaces have yielded promising results in this direction. There is now considerable evidence that the nervous system integrate ...

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

Silvestro Micera, Stanisa Raspopovic, Francesco Maria Petrini, Edoardo D'Anna, 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 ...

Comparison of linear frequency and amplitude modulation for intraneural sensory feedback in bidirectional hand prostheses

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

Recent studies have shown that direct nerve stimulation can be used to provide sensory feedback to hand amputees. The intensity of the elicited sensations can be modulated using the amplitude or frequency of the injected stimuli. However, a comprehensive c ...

Biomimetic Intraneural Sensory Feedback Enhances Sensation Naturalness, Tactile Sensitivity, and Manual Dexterity in a Bidirectional Prosthesis

Silvestro Micera, Giulio Rognini, Francesco Maria Petrini, Edoardo D'Anna, Ivo Strauss, Giacomo Valle, Francesco Iberite

Peripheral intraneural stimulation can provide tactile information to amputees. However, efforts are still necessary to identify encoding strategy eliciting percepts that are felt as both natural and effective for prosthesis control. Here we compared the n ...
