an with Prosthetic arm riding a bikeThe purpose of this study is to assess the functional performance of a new prosthesis control system, known as Phantom X. Subjects will be fitted with a non-invasive sensor array and prosthetic arm and asked to perform tasks during 1-2 study visits.

You will do two tests:

  1. In the first test, you will do tasks like packing a suitcase and setting a table. You will do each task twice, once with how you normally do it (with or without your current prosthesis) and once using the Phantom X system. The order of the two will be random.
  2. In the second test, you will move numbered blocks from one box to another.

Seeking individuals 21 years in age and older with unilateral or bilateral amputation at the transradial level.

Visits will fit individuals with array and test their ability to use hand to perform tasks.
