Abstract
An artificial hand system can be controlled with an intelligent wrist configuration in order to reduce the physical and mental load/discomfort on the muscles of an individual using a hand prosthesis while using the said hand.
Claims10
An artificial hand system to reduce physical and mental discomfort in muscles of an individual using a hand prosthesis while using the hand prosthesis, comprising:
- a wrist configuration, wherein a stiffness of the wrist configuration is controlled according to a weight of a load;
- a sensing unit for sensing the weight of the load;
- a processor unit for receiving data from the sensing unit;
- and
- a drive element actuated by the processor unit;
- wherein the processor unit is configured to:
- receive at least one data related to the weight of the load from the sensing unit,
- process at least one data about the weight taken from the sensing unit by methods comprising signal processing and machine learning,
- detect a continuous and/or gradual relationship of processed data with the weight of the load,
- generate an output signal containing weight information of the load as a result of a detected weight relationship, and
- actuate the drive element to set the stiffness of the wrist configuration based on the output signal.
