Controlling of myoelectric prothesis
Tomanová, Markéta ; Bubník, Karel (referee) ; Janoušek, Oto (advisor)
The Master´s thesis summarizes the knowledge about controlling of myoelectric prostheses. The Introduction part of this work provides an overview of the anatomy of muscles and their contraction. In case of restricted function of hand, it is necessary to compensate this deficiency by using prosthetic limbs. Among one of the most technically difficult is robotic prosthesis. In this semestral work is myoelectric prosthesis replaced by a robotic arm. Arm is controlled by the electromyographic signals. The signals are recorded by Biopac acquision unit, then processed in LabVIEW and robotic system is controlled by the Arduino platform.
Upper Extremity Prosthetics
Tomanová, Markéta ; Janoušek, Oto (referee) ; Kolářová, Jana (advisor)
Bachelor´s thesis summarizes the knowledge about prosthetic substitutes upper extremities, with a focus on myoelectric prosthesis, the bionic arm. Practical work provides an overview of the different types of upper limb prostheses, starting with cosmetic prostheses without the active functions, ending with active myoelectric hand. Literature search is performed, including the summary table comparing the advantages and disadvantages of each upper limb prostheses. The next section deals with directly myoelectric extremities, with a view to prosthesis individual companies to specialize their production of these prostheses. The practical part was focused on recording electromyographic signals directly intended to control myo-electric prostheses. The proposed block diagram shows the bionic arm components required for its activity. The included software allows to process signals measured using the Biopac system. The result is a functional work program based on the principle of detecting overthreshold impulses. Based on the resulting binary outputs there are the final results of the prosthesis control, both text and graphics, shown after adjusting.
Forearm prosthesis
Vařečka, Martin ; Sekora, Jiří (referee) ; Balogh, Jaroslav (advisor)
Bachelor’s thesis is focused on design of active hand prosthesis. This thesis summarizes upper limb anatomy focused on forearm. Then deals with amputations techniques and indication for amputation. Part describing contemporary prosthesis is important to design an active forearm prosthesis, který je popsán v třetí a čtvrté kapitole. The system processes biosignals using instrumentation amplifiers. The signals are evaluated by the Arduino development board, which mediates control of servo motors.
Construction of forearm myoelectric prosthetic
Kuštán, Jan ; Půlpán, Rudolf (advisor) ; Čichoň, Rostislav (referee)
Author: Jan Kuštán Title: Construction of forearm myoelectric prosthetic Objectives: The main goal is to describe the design and construction of appropriate myoelectric prosthesis after amputation of the forearm with subsequent rehabilitation care and occupational therapists. Methods: The theoretical part is a literature review. In the practical part I gained knowledge by studying literature consulted with prosthetics in Pilsen and Czech Budejovice. The skills I used when designing myoelectric forearm prosthesis with subsequent rehabilitation care and occupational therapists. Keywords: amputation of the forearm, myoelectric prosthesis, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, grip.
Occupational therapist's methodics of work for patients with myoelectric prosthesis
Hoidekrová, Kristýna ; Svěcená, Kateřina (advisor) ; Jeníček, Jakub (referee)
The aim of this study was to develop methodics of occupational therapy for patients with moelectric prosthesis, which is used by patients with amputation of upper limbs as well as patients with congenital problems. In the Czech republic there are no complex methodics about occupational therapy and myoelectric prosthesis, despite the huge mount of foreign studies of this topic. Myoelectric prosthesis uses the principle of sensing myoelectrical signals which are then transformed to the motor output in the terminal portion of the prosthesis. Occupational therapy intervention begins at the preprosthetic phase, the occupational therapist assesses the general potential for the use of myoelectric prosthesis and picks up myoelectric signals from the stump. In interprosthetic phase occupational therapist is dedicated to the training of activities of daily living with myoelectric prosthesis and training residual stump on the basis of myotest. The phase after prosthetic content of occupational therapy evaluation and assessment, which focus on patients ability of myoelectric control and prosthesis involvement in activities of daily living and training of grip. Within the training of grip, occupational therapist is dedicated to training proper grip within the pace, grip strength and targeted movements. The...
