In this article, we study the feasibility of applying the SoftHand technology to a prosthetic device that is suitable for activities of daily living (ADL) and, in particular, some important objectives such as doing work, performing home chores, and participating in hobbies. These applications have specific requirements, such as high grip power; grasp versatility; ruggedness; resilience; resistance...
The Pisa/IIT SoftHand was built to incorporate human movement synergies into the mechanical design to build a smarter robotic hand. In the evolution of the SoftHand from robotic to prosthetic hand, we have begun experimenting with several types of haptic feedback to improve both the functionality and the feel of the hand. Here, we will demonstrate the use of the hand with three types of feedback:...
