摘要：Many patients with upper limb defects desire myoelectric prosthetic hands, but they are still not used for some reasons. One of the most significant reasons is its external appearance, which has the discomfort caused by the structural difference between a human hand and a robotic link. The structure must be based on human anatomy to create a more natural-looking prosthesis. This study designed a biomimetic prosthetic hand with bones, ligaments, tendons, and multiple muscles based on the human musculoskeletal system. We verified the proposed prosthetic hand using the viscoelastic angle sensor to determine whether it works like a human hand. We also compared the finger force of the prosthetic hand with that of a human finger. It could be capable of controlling the angle and the stiffness of the joint by multiple extensor and flexor muscles, like humans.
