Summary

This study looks at how changing the number and placement of sensors on a prosthetic arm affects how well people with below-elbow amputations can control it. About 32 adults who already use a myoelectric (muscle-signal) prosthetic will test different sensor setups while doing tasks like packing a suitcase. The goal is to find the best way to set up the sensors so users can move their bionic hand more naturally and easily.
