It is then demonstrated how to mediate the wetness sensation in real‐time using a thermal wearable device that mimics the thermal properties of the skin.
Here, we show that a noninvasive wearable device can be used to provide thermal sensations on amputees' phantom hands. The device delivers thermal stimuli to ...
Feb 2, 2024 · Wetness perception is a step towards enriching the way that amputee patients feel and interact with the world.” The research team is now seeking ...
Feb 2, 2024 · Technology that enables amputees to feel wetness through a prosthesis has been developed by a team of researchers at the University of Southampton and at EPFL.
Mar 29, 2024 · Remapping Wetness Perception in Upper Limb Amputees. Wetness Perception Sensory feedback is crucial for prosthetic users to experience their ...
Jan 20, 2024 · Remapping wetness perception in upper limb amputees - fascinating and important work.
Aim: To identify sensory mechanisms that allow humans to sense wetness on their skin in the absence of hygroreceptors. Research applications:
In this study, we have demonstrated, for the first time, a technology that allows amputees to perceive thermal sensation via their prosthetic hand. We have ...
