Sliding Mode Control of a Finger for a Prosthetic Hand
نویسندگان
چکیده
A prosthetic finger model, intended to imitate a real human hand and for use in replacing the real index finger of an amputee, is designed using tendons instead of joint motors. A dynamic model of the prosthetic finger model is developed, and a non-chattering robust sliding mode control is applied to make the model follow a certain trajectory. Trajectory planning of the finger model is based on images of the closing motion of a human hand, and time varying reference joint angles are obtained using these images. The robustness of the controller is confirmed by introducing an unexpected sudden joint friction induced in the prosthetic finger.

Prosthetic Hand Finger Control Using Fuzzy Sliding Modes
In order to improve the life quality of amputees, providing approximate manipulation ability of a human hand to that of a prosthetic hand is considered by many researchers. In this study, a biomechanical model of the index finger of the human hand is developed based on the human anatomy. Since the activation of finger bones are carried out by tendons, a tendon configuration of the index finger ...

In this study, first, human hand anatomy is investigated dynamically. The tendon configuration of the fingers are also introduced and then modeled to imitate a real human hand index finger in the study because the actuating elements of the fingers are tendons on the phalanges. The prosthetic hand finger model is aimed to replace a real index finger of an amputated human. Therefore, artificial t...

The motion control problem for the finger of a humanoid robot hand is investigated. First, the index finger of the human hand is dynamically modelled as a kinematic chain of cylindrical links. During construction of the model, special attention is given to determining bone dimensions and masses that are similar to the real human hand. After the kinematic and dynamic analysis of the model, in or...

This work proposes a neural-fuzzy sliding mode control scheme for a hydro-turbine speed governor system. Considering the assumption of elastic water hammer, a nonlinear mode of the hydro-turbine governor system is established. By linearizing this mode, a sliding mode controller is designed. The linearized mode is subject to uncertainties. The uncertainties are generated in the process of linear...
