I build robots that move, blink, and sometimes even creep you out. From animatronics to 3D printing experiments, I fuse ...

and Bouchard’s nodes can occur at the proximal interphalangeal joints on the hand. OA usually begins over the age of 40 years and most commonly affects the hands, knees, hips, feet and spine (Doherty ...

I asked one of the creators of the arms, Professor Masahiko Inami, to tell me more. This is a small copy of this movement. So physical computing to avoid collision. Also, it's very intuitive. It's ...

Thumb arthritis is becoming a growing concern among younger adults, as they experience joint breakdowns at ages not seen in previous generations.

A recent survey found that 70% of adults over 50 experience joint pain. Here's what it could mean—and the expert-backed ways ...

The Modular Prosthetic Limb (MPL), an artificial arm-and-hand mechanism that was built by the Johns Hopkins lab, has 26 joints controlled by 17 separate motors and “can do just about everything ...

Abstract: In this article, a position control strategy is proposed for a triple-joint pneumatic finger with angle sensors using a tendon-driven technique. Measurement noise from the angle sensors is ...

The proposed robot hand imitated the human hand, the four fingers, excluding the thumb, consist of distal interphalangeal(DIP), proximal interphalangeal(PIP), metacarpophalangeal(MCP) joints. The ...

in the wrist and finger joints (carpometacarpal 1 (CMC1), metacarpophalangeal (MCP), and proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joints) of healthy controls. Methods: Twenty seven healthy volunteers (15 women, ...

The measures were done in triplicate at four locations: the distal interphalangeal joint of the index finger, ulnar styloid process, interphalangeal joint of the hallux, and internal malleolus. The ...

Symptomatic HOA was defined as hand pain and in addition to radiographic HOA (at least one interphalangeal (IP) joint or 1st carpometacarpal joint with Kellgren–Lawrence grade ≥2). EOA was defined as ...
