Bionic prosthetic hands: A review of present technology and future aspirations

Christopher Oliver, R. G. E. Clement, K E Bugler

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Bionic prosthetic hands are rapidly evolving. An in-depth knowledge of this field of medicine is currently only required by a small number of individuals working in highly specialist units. However, with improving technology it is likely that the demand for and application of bionic hands will continue to increase and a wider understanding will be necessary.
