Many people in developing countries who have lost a limb live with a common problem: They have no prosthesis. Josh Tacca, a doctoral student in mechanical engineering, traveled to Quito, Ecuador, last ...

A prototype 3D-printed myoelectric prosthetic hand developed in Japan successfully passed a test by an upper-arm amputee, performing a series of intricate finger motions with more than 90% accuracy.

The setup incorporates a temperature sensor that covers the prosthetic hand's index finger pad, along with a thermode located in the socket that connects the prosthesis to the residual arm stump. A ...

A new 3D-printed prosthetic hand can learn the wearers' movement patterns to help amputee patients perform daily tasks, reports a new study. Losing a limb, either through illness or accident, can ...
