New Technologies to Train Myoelectric Prosthesis Users

Spotlight on the LTI research department. Director of Research Todd Farrell, Ph.D. and Research Engineer Carlos Martinez talk about their program funded by the US Army Medical Research and Materiel Command that will provide a portable and affordable myoelectric training system to assist an upper limb amputee in occupational therapy. Watch them take the prosthetic component and combine it with an interactive video game, providing a motivational way to do therapy to increase compliance and success.
