摘要： A method of controlling robotic arm based on brain activities. The method includes measuring HbO level of non-disabled subject at target brain areas during wrist movement using a fNIRS device with light sources and detectors. The method further includes detecting brain activities of non-disabled subject through said detectors based on HbO level of non-disabled subject during wrist movement, and classifying brain activities corresponding to wrist movement using classification algorithms and generating training data set. The method also includes generating control signals based on brain activities for robotic arm to perform wrist movement, and detecting brain activities of disabled subject at target brain areas based on HbO level using fNIRS device. The method includes analyzing brain activities of disabled subject based on training data set, and generating control signal for robotic arm to perform wrist movement based on analyzed brain activity of disabled subject.

摘要： A control system for control of a prosthetic device having a plurality of actuators receives an orientation signal indicative of a desired movement. The control system evaluates whether the prosthetic device may move as desired with a current angle of rotation and commands at least one actuator to move the prosthetic device as desired by maintaining the current angle of rotation or by adjusting the angle of rotation if the prosthetic device cannot move as desired with the current angle. The control system may alternate between commanding a first subset of actuators and a second subset of actuators each time the orientation signal is indicative of a neutral position. The control system may include a position sensor and a compliance sensor and may command at least one actuator based on a combination of positional control using the position sensor and force control using the compliance sensor.

摘要： Prosthetic devices, such as prosthetic hands (including, e.g., bionic prosthetic hands controlled by myoelectric signals and/or equipped with force sensors for feedback) can utilize a modular design to simplify assembly and repair. In some embodiments, low-cost additive manufacturing techniques are employed, e.g., to create prosthetic device parts with complex interior geometries and/or functionally integrated components.

摘要： A rotary drive member drives a driven member. A ring surrounding the driven member has two cam recesses containing lock members between cam surfaces of cam recesses and the ring. Each recess accommodates an associated lock member at different locations where the recess is shallower. Driving the driven member is permitted in a given rotation relative to the ring, but each lock member inhibits rotation of the driven member in the opposite sense. The recesses extend in opposite directions. Coupling between the driven members is free-play whereby reversal in the rotation disengages members and reengages. Protuberances extending into cam recesses retain a lock member associated with one recess at the deeper location permitting movement of the other lock member towards the shallower location. Upon reversal of the rotation, the protuberances retain another lock member at the deeper location permitting movement of one lock member.

摘要： A prosthesis and control approach using electromyography (EMG) data and motion data. EMG sensors and a motion sensor provide inputs to generate control signals. The EMG sensor detects EMG signals from the user's body. The motion sensor may be one or more inertial measurement sensors (IMS) and/or a magnetic field sensor. The EMG and motion data is analyzed according to various techniques to provide control of one or more actuatable prosthetic joints of an upper limb prosthesis, such as a prosthetic elbow, wrist, hand, and/or digits.
