<p>A prosthetic device (10) that has independent movement of each digit (12) is provided. The device includes a frame (14) to which a plurality of digits is mounted. A plurality of actuators (32) is also mounted to the frame, and are coupled to the plurality of digits, which cause at least one of the plurality of digits to move independently or concurrently relative to another digit. The actuators of the prosthetic device can be coupled to sensors for sensing a movement and for generating a signal in response to the movement. A controller responsive to the sensor signal generates control signals for input to at least one actuator. The actuator receiving the signal causes at least one of the digits to move, independently, and concurrently with the remaining digits.</p> |
