Figure 3From: Changes in performance over time while learning to use a myoelectric prosthesisIllustrative examples of a direct grasp trial with the low-resistance object. Velocity of the hand, hand aperture, and object deformation are plotted against time (A) and against displacement of the hand from start position to the position of the object (B). Dependent variables that are indicated in 4A: a = Reach time; b = Hand open phase; c = Plateau phase; d = Hand close phase; e = Total Grasp time; f = Compression during grasp; g = Compression during manipulation.Back to article page
