Summary
This study tests a robotic hand that sends pressure or vibration signals to the user's arm when it touches objects, aiming to make the prosthesis feel more like a real limb. Nine adults with a below-elbow amputation will try the device and perform everyday tasks. The goal is to see if the feedback improves control, comfort, and the sense of owning the artificial hand.
