| Popis: | Conventional control systems for prosthetic hands use myoelectric signals as an interface, but it is impossible to realize complex and flexible human hand movements with only myoelectric signals. A promising control scheme for prosthetic hands uses computer vision to assist in grasping objects. It features an imaging sensor, and the control system is capable of recognizing an object placed in the environment. Then, a gripping pattern can be selected from some predefined candidates according the recognized object. However, previous studies assumed that only one object exists in the environment. If there are multiple target objects in the environment, the hand could become confused in attempting to find the target object. This study addresses this problem and proposes a method to determine the target object from multiple objects. The proposed method is able to determine the target object by estimating the positional relationship between the artificial hand and the objects, as well as the motion of the hand. To verify the validity and effectiveness, we implemented the proposed method in a vision-based prosthetic hands control system and conducted pick-and-place experiments. The experiments confirm that the proposed method can accurately estimate the target object in accordance with the user's intention. |
