DOI: 10.1007/s10439-017-1976-4
Abstract: Bone-anchored limb prostheses allow for the direct transfer of external loads from the prosthesis to the skeleton, eliminating the need for a socket and the associated problems of poor fit, discomfort, and limited range of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41563-021-00966-9
Abstract: Commercial prosthetic devices currently do not provide natural sensory information on the interaction with objects or movements. The subsequent disadvantages include unphysiological walking with a prosthetic leg and difficulty in controlling the force exerted with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/tnsre.2022.3159186
Abstract: The addition of sensory feedback to upper-limb prostheses has been shown to improve control, increase embodiment, and reduce phantom limb pain. However, most commercial prostheses do not incorporate sensory feedback due to several factors. This… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/toh.2024.3436827
Abstract: Tactile feedback is essential for upper-limb prostheses functionality and embodiment, yet its practical implementation presents challenges. Users must adapt to non-physiological signals, increasing cognitive load. However, some prosthetic devices transmit tactile information through socket vibrations,… read more here.
