An evaluation of contralateral hand involvement in the operation of the Delft Self-Grasping Hand, an adjustable passive prosthesis (2021)
Journal Article
Chadwell, A., Chinn, N., Kenney, L., Karthaus, Z., Mos, D., & Smit, G. (2021). An evaluation of contralateral hand involvement in the operation of the Delft Self-Grasping Hand, an adjustable passive prosthesis. PLoS ONE, 16(6), e0252870. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0252870

The Delft Self-Grasping Hand is an adjustable passive prosthesis operated using the concept of tenodesis (where opening and closing of the hand is mechanically linked to the flexion and extension of the wrist). As a purely mechanical device that does... Read More about An evaluation of contralateral hand involvement in the operation of the Delft Self-Grasping Hand, an adjustable passive prosthesis.

Towards automation of dynamic-gaze video analysis taking functional upper-limb tasks as a case study (2021)
Journal Article
Alyaman, M., Sobuh, M., Zaid, A., Kenney, L., Galpin, A., & Al-Taee, M. (2021). Towards automation of dynamic-gaze video analysis taking functional upper-limb tasks as a case study. Computer Methods and Programs in Biomedicine, 203, 106041. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cmpb.2021.106041

Background and objective : Previous studies in motor control have yielded clear evidence that gaze behavior (where someone looks) quantifies the attention paid to perform actions. However, eliciting clinically meaningful results from the gaze data h... Read More about Towards automation of dynamic-gaze video analysis taking functional upper-limb tasks as a case study.

Addressing unpredictability may be the key to improving performance with current clinically prescribed myoelectric prostheses (2021)
Journal Article
Chadwell, A., Kenney, L., Thies, S., Head, J., Galpin, A., & Baker, R. (2021). Addressing unpredictability may be the key to improving performance with current clinically prescribed myoelectric prostheses. Scientific reports, 11, 3300. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-021-82764-6

The efferent control chain for an upper-limb myoelectric prosthesis can be separated into 3 key areas: signal generation, signal acquisition, and device response. Data were collected from twenty trans-radial myoelectric prosthesis users using their o...
