RESUMO
With the continuous improvement and innovation of modern engineering technology and biomedical technology,many efforts and process have been made on multifunctional prosthesis systems and have gained more and more attentions.The multifunctional powered prosthesis has become one of the research areas in the current muscular rehabilitation medicine and neural engineering.The bionic control of prosthesis,especially using the neural signal to control the upper prosthesis effectively,is one of the most important fields of prosthesis technology.Choosing the proper neural signals seems to be particularly important for bionic prosthetic control strategy.Currently,several different signal controls such as EMG control,EEG control,voice signal control and peripheral nerve signal control have been proposed and investigated for the bionic control of multi-function prosthesis.This paper reviews the latest efforts and progress of multifunctional upper prosthesis.
