NIH funded project to develop wearable sensing platform for measuring interface pressure between residual limbs and prosthetic sockets outside laboratory settings, led by University of Notre Dame.
Description
This project aims to develop a wearable sensing platform for long-term measurement of interface pressure between residual limbs and prosthetic sockets, outside laboratory settings, using biomechanical models, inertial sensors, and pressure sensors. The project is funded by NIH (PAR-24-022) and involves the University of Notre Dame and the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB).
