Vision-based interface for grasping intention detection and grip selection : towards intuitive upper-limb assistive devices

Abstract: Assistive devices for indivuals with upper-limb movement often lack controllability and intuitiveness, in particular for grasping function. In this work, we introduce a novel user interface for grasping movement control in which the user delegates the grasping task decisions to the device, only moving their (potentially prosthetic) hand toward the targeted object.
