Data fusion for a hand prosthesis tactile feedback system
2014
Biomedical Circuits and Systems Conference (BioCAS), 2014 IEEE
Current myoelectrically controlled hand prostheses normally lack tactile feedback, thus limiting their functionalities and user acceptance. We propose a non-invasive tactile sensory feedback system, consisting miniaturized sensors, wireless communication module and vibrotactile actuators, aiming at providing a natural sense of touch to amputees. We model the tactile feedback chain from tactile sensors to actuators. This model includes a 2D hand model, a sensor data fusion model, and a phantom map model. We implemented the sensor data fusion model by different techniques and compared their performance.
