A Mechanical Magnetic Connection between Muscles and Prosthesis for Enhanced Proprioception: Determine the Snapping Force

In the context of prosthetic devices, the absence of natural sensory feedback poses a significant challenge, leading to limited proprioceptive sensation and reduced control over artificial limbs. This study explores the potential of establishing a magnetic connection between prosthetic devices and muscles to enhance proprioceptive feedback and...

Viscosity Perception of Virtual Fluids rendered by a Hand Exoskeleton

—Enabling haptic interaction with non-solid materials, such as liquids or sediments, could expand possibilities for exploration of virtual or remote environments, which would e.g enable training divers and astronauts in simulators. To allow application of natural investigation procedures in such scenarios, haptic interfaces with several degrees...
