![]() ![]() At Simon Fraser University in British Columbia, Canada researchers are working on improving the Movement of an already highly advanced robotic Prosthetic arm. The bebionic arm*from*RSLSteeper, a UK firm, has five independent fingers, but the interface and how its controlled is what the researchers are trying to Improve so that Movement is more natural, responsive, and feels a bit more like a real arm. The M.A.S.S. Impact (Muscle Activity Sensor Strip) team at SFU has developed a stick-on electrode device that measures the electrical activity within the remaining muscles around the stump. These are recorded by the electrode array and converted by **vel software developed at the SFU lab, which uses techniques that Improve its performance as the arm is used more and more. The Tech**logy originally came from attempts to rehabilitate stroke patients, but found use in Prosthetic research. The team will be participating in the*Cybathlon this coming October*where athletes using advanced prostheses will compete in a variety of tasks. Here’s an SFU report about the new upper Prosthetic Control tech**logy: Via:*SFU… The post New Control Tech**logy to Improve Prosthetic Arm Movement appeared first on Medgadget. ??????? ??????: New Control Tech**logy to Improve Prosthetic Arm Movement || ??????: rss || ??????: اسم منتداك
