A novel perception system, the proximity perception-based grasping intelligence (P2GI) system, has been developed to enhance the dexterity of prosthetic hands, closely mimicking human hand functionality. Utilizing embedded proximity sensors and a real-time decision-making algorithm, the P2GI system accurately maps the point cloud of an object and infers the user’s intended grasp posture, achieving a high accuracy of grasp posture classification and a high rate of task success. This advancement promises significant improvements in prosthetic hand control, potentially broadening the application of highly dexterous prosthetic hands in everyday tasks....read more
