TLDR
The present availability and clinical impact of myoelectric prostheses is reviewed and an overview is given of current research in this field with comments on probable directions of development.Abstract:
The following is a brief introduction to powered prosthetics and myoelectric control. This paper reviews the present availability and clinical impact of myoelectric prostheses. A significant observation is that these systems have reached a sufficient degree of maturity that they are accepted by many health-care funding agencies as reasonable and cost-effective components of the rehabilitation process. The limitations of both the mechanical systems and the myoelectric controls are discussed in some detail, from the viewpoint of the potential user. Finally, an overview is given of current research in this field with comments on probable directions of development.read more

A new strategy for multifunction myoelectric control
TL;DR: A novel approach to the control of a multifunction prosthesis based on the classification of myoelectric patterns is described, which increases the number of functions which can be controlled by a single channel of myOElectric signal but does so in a way which does not increase the effort required by the amputee.
