A Test-bench to Investigate the Use of Magnetic Fields for Haptic Feedback in Prosthetics
Description
This abstract delves into the pivotal role of feedback
in prosthetic devices and aims to investigate the validity
of a novel approach based on magnetic interaction between
appropriately powered solenoids and a magnet. Through
controlled solenoid currents, the magnet exhibits movement
along various directions, demonstrating the feasibility
of utilizing this technique for providing feedback in
prosthetic applications. The results highlight the
potential of magnetic feedback as a promising avenue
to enhance user experience and functionality in the field
of prosthetics.
