Work at Southampton University has resulted in a control strategy that utilises touch, slip and position feedback information to minimise the conscious effort required to control a multifunctional hand. Based on this principle, a fully articulated multidegree of freedom hand has been developed which closely replicates its human counterpart in features such as weight, shape and size. This thesis describes the work carried out to prepare the hand for everyday use by the limb deficient population. This involves the development of transducers suitable for use with cosmetic gloves and real-time implementation of the Southampton strategy on a portable electronic controller. The past work in the `below elbow' prosthetic field is reviewed with an i...
