"Investigation of Desensitization in Upper Limb via Electrotactile Stim" by Faran Ali Khan
The importance of sensory feedback in prosthetic devices cannot be overstated for amputees, enabling them to comfortably engage in daily activities. Presently, many amputees rely on visual cues to control their limb movements and interactions, which can be mentally demanding and result in inefficient use of their prostheses. This reliance contributes to device abandonment and a lack of integration with prosthetic devices. This thesis aims to examine the effects of desensitization via electrotactile stimulation on upper arm prosthetics. The objective is to develop an experimental procedure for ...
