Evaluation of Dexterous Terminal Device

NCT05840601 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Summary

Liberating Technologies, Inc. (LTI) has developed Pointdexter, a dexterous prosthetic fingertip that is integrated into a commercial prosthetic hand and allows for an additional fine grasp. The Pointdexter device interfaces with upper limb prostheses by swapping the usual prosthetic pointer finger with the Pointdexter device. The dexterous prosthetic fingertip utilizes the same control strategy used to operate the prosthetic hand. This solution aims to combine the advantages of the common terminal devices into one product by combining the practicality and dexterity of a split-hook or gripper with the aesthetics of multi-articulating hands.
