Development of a Sensory Feedback System for Lower-limb Amputees using Vibrotactile Haptics

Following lower-limb amputation, patients suffer from sensory loss within the prosthesis/residuum complex leading to diminished proprioception and balance. Artificial sensory systems have the potential to improve rehabilitation outcomes including better functional usage of lower-limb prostheses to a...
