— To evaluate and optimize the mechanical design of underactuated hands, a benchmark test is defined that quantifies the ability to hold grasped objects subject to force distur...
— In this paper we outline a grasp planning system designed to augment the cortical control of a prosthetic arm and hand. A key aspect of this task is the presence of on-line use...
