Improving Bimanual Performance of Passive Prosthetic Hands for Daily Activities.
The prosthetic hands lack the capability of creating a wide range of grasps, and have no intrinsic control system . Since technology is ever-evolving, there has been an effort to improve the bimanual performance of passive prosthetic hands for daily activities. Various approaches have been proposed by researchers to enable users to better perform activities with their prostheses . This article will discuss some of these approaches, their potential benefits and drawbacks, and how they can be used to improve the bimanual performance of passive prosthetic hands for daily activities . One approach that has been proposed is using a powered hand exoskeleton or robotic glove. This type of device provides an external power source which enables users to increase the force they can exert on objects without expending as much energy as they would if they had only their own muscles and tendons controlling the hand movement. The robotic glove also offers sensors which detect how hard objects...
