Multifunctional Bionic Prosthesis with Electromyography (EMG) Control, Integrated Protection Systems, and Personalized Automatic Adjustment

Abstract

This invention relates to a multifunctional bionic prosthesis designed to significantly improve the quality of life for amputees. The prosthesis incorporates an advanced control system based on EMG (electromyogram) sensors, enabling intuitive and natural interaction between the user and the device. It offers a variety of innovative features, including adjustable speed and force modes, realistic haptic feedback for precise tactile feedback, and advanced thermal management for extended comfort. Integrated protection systems, including temperature, humidity, and current sensors, ensure optimal safety and protect the prosthesis's internal components. In addition, a removable vital signs monitoring module, capable of measuring parameters such as blood glucose and skin temperature, provides a proactive health monitoring dimension, particularly relevant for users suffering from chronic diseases. The prosthesis also features a modular system allowing for advanced customization of the socket and accessories to meet the specific needs of each user. This innovation pushes the boundaries of current technologies in terms of control, safety, and personalization of prosthetic devices, thus offering an enhanced user experience. It is distinguished by its impact on rehabilitation, functional autonomy and proactive health management.
