Inclusion Criteria: 1. the individual can successfully use their prosthesis, list the components used and that their current prosthesis is fitting properly (by performing a tension analysis); 2. the individual had unilateral transradial limb loss more than 6 months before the clinical evaluation because, to use a myoelectric prosthesis, the residual limb volume needs to be stable; 3. the individual is a proficient owner of one or more common myoelectric prosthetic hands, such as the Sensor Hand Speed and Bebionic. Exclusion Criteria: 1. individuals who have had transradial amputation for less than 6 months; 2. individuals who have been fit and trained to use a prosthesis but chose not to use one; 3. individuals who use the i-Limb Quantum myoelectric prosthesis; 4. symptomatic brachial plexopathy, cervical radiculopathy or polyneuropathy (observed); 5. orthopedic, joint degeneration (i.e., arthritis, self-reported) affecting the hand or cervical spine that severely limit upper limb function (observed); 6. visual problems that would interfere with the grasping; 7. co-existing central nervous system disease with symptoms that limit upper extremity function (e.g., multiple sclerosis, motor neuron disease, myasthenia gravis, Parkinson's disease, dystonia) revealed in medical history; 8. limited range of motion as assessed through range of motion testing; 9. inability to follow study instructions; 10. use of medications that might affect sensory and/or motor functions.
