Controlling a Robotic Arm through Phantom Limb Movements Years ago, missing limbs often led to stigmatization and limited mobility. However, human creativity has fueled groundbreaking innovations to support the amputee community. One such innovation is the exploration of phantom limb movements. 1. Understanding Phantom Limb Movement Phantom limb movement refers to the sensation of movement in a limb that is no longer physically present. Despite the absence of the limb, the brain continues to send signals, creating the perception of movement. These signals originate from residual muscles in the amputated limb. Harnessing these phantom limb movements allows individuals to control a robotic arm, bridging the gap between missing limbs and technology. 2. The Power of EMG Sensors At the forefront of controlling robotic arms through phantom limb movements are EMG (electromyography) sensors. These sensors play a crucial role in capturing and translating electrical signals from residual muscles into precise motion. Vulcan’s EMG technology stands out for its integration into the Vulcan app, enhancing synergy between sensors and prosthetic limbs. This integration enables real-time adjustment of control settings based on muscle signals, empowering users to independently manage their prosthetic hands with speed and accuracy. Compared to traditional electrodes, which require complex calibration, Vulcan’s EMG sensors offer a streamlined experience, reducing reliance on healthcare professionals and enabling users to adjust settings conveniently. 3. Training and Integration Training muscles to recognize specific phantom limb movements is essential for effective robotic arm control. Vulcan provides comprehensive support through expert-designed rehabilitation, training, and ongoing care via the Vulcan app. This includes automatic calibration and engaging practices to optimize performance and enhance control accuracy. 4. Benefits and Applications Controlling a robotic arm through phantom limb movements enhances dexterity, precision, and natural movement, significantly improving users’ quality of life. This technology facilitates daily tasks, occupational activities, and recreational pursuits with greater ease and confidence. Vulcan Augmetics is dedicated to advancing innovation and supporting users worldwide with medical-standard prosthetic products at affordable prices. Contact Info:
