Optimize Pattern Recognition Control of Powered Upper Limb Prosthesis

This study is focused on optimizing methods for controlling upper-limb myoelectric prosthetic arms. If you are enrolled in this study you would be expected to visit one of the research sites for approximately 5 in-lab visits lasting about 4 hours. These visits are expected to happen within a 5-week period but may take longer depending on scheduling availability. During these visits you will be completing basic tasks similar to your everyday actions using a prosthetic arm that is provided for you.

Sensory Feedback for Touch and Proprioception With Prosthetic Limbs

Upper limb amputation is a devastating injury that leaves many thousands of typically young and active individuals in the US to rely on artificial arms and hands to help restore their lost function. The investigators research is focused on helping these individuals to feel where their prosthetic limbs are moving without having to look at them by developing devices and approaches to provide sensory feedback of limb movement through the nerves that once served the missing limb.

Outcomes on Teeth Prepared With BOPT

The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical and biological behavior of full coverage restorations on teeth prepared without finish line in a prospective clinical study.
