INPUT - H2020 EU project to advance hand prosthetic control

<b>Abstract<br><br></b>INPUT is a European H2020 project (02/2016 - 02/2020) that focuses on advancing upper limb prosthetics by tackling the most significant aspects of successfully fitting such a device to a user: Improved socket for more comfortable fit and Wearing; Improved training to maximize the outcome with the patient; Improved recognition algorithms for better and more robust control; Improved evaluations to make sure that the devices are tested in clinically relevant scenarios.<br>We Will achieve this by increasing our theoretical knowledge<br>on the control generating mechanisms, by ample end user<br>testing (2 of the 4 project years are dedicated to user testing) and by implementing the project as an Innovation Action, meaning an increased focus on high market readiness.
