Upper Extremity Prosthetics Research. Human Tracking. Sensory Motor Control. Myoelectric Control

摘要

CONTENTS: Upper extremity prosthetics research: Experimental investigation of the Heidelberg Pneumatic Arm; experimental investigation of the Northwestern Attitudinal Controlled Elbow; experimental investigation of the French Electric Hand; exploration of minor surgical methods for developing new body control sites; exploration of new harnessing techniques for transducers; evaluation of tentative design criteria for externally powered prostheses. Research on sensory motor control: Experimental investigations of the AIPR Pneumatic Arm; experimental investigations of functional muscle isolation by training; development of an external logic system for prosthetic motion control. Research on the performance of human operators of tracking system: Function generator; reports; experimentation. Research on myoelectric control systems: Unidimensional EMG control to a self-paced input; unidimensional EMG control to a step input.
