Wireless sensors aim to give amputees a better grip on life

NCT ID NCT06821412

Summary

This small study tested a new wireless sensor system called Asterisk for people with prosthetic arms. The goal was to see if placing sensors under a comfortable liner, instead of inside the socket, could make the artificial limb easier and more satisfying to use. Four participants with below-elbow amputations tried the wireless system at home for a month and reported on their experience.
