Development of an object recognition system for the PrHand hand prosthesis based on machine learning.

Project: Research Project

Project Details

Description

General objective:

●Develop an object recognition system for the PrHand hand prosthesis based on pressure sensors and a Machine Learning (ML) system.

Specific objectives:

●O1. Review of the state of the art for the identification of force sensors used in hand prostheses and robotic devices, ML methods for object identification and Hardware used to implement the ML system in real time.

●O2. Integrate and characterize sensors that allow the measurement of the grip strength of the PrHand hand prosthesis in real time.

●O3. Generate a data set with different objects held by the PrHand prosthesis and train different ML models.

●O4. Evaluate the performance of ML models and select the most appropriate to implement in the system.

●O5. Check the operation of the ML model in an experiment holding objects in real time.
