Myoelectric Prosthetics
Advanced technology that uses your own muscle signals to control movement.
Myoelectric prostheses represent the cutting edge of upper extremity prosthetic technology. By detecting the electrical signals produced by your remaining muscles, these devices translate your natural movement intentions into precise, controlled prosthetic motion — restoring function that feels intuitive and natural.
How It Works
The Technology
Muscle Signal Detection
Electrodes in the socket detect electrical signals from your residual limb muscles — no buttons or switches required.
Microprocessor Control
Advanced microprocessors translate muscle signals into precise, proportional prosthetic movement.
Multi-Grip Hands
Modern myoelectric hands offer multiple grip patterns for different tasks — from power grip to precision pinch.
Rechargeable Systems
Modern myoelectric systems use rechargeable batteries for all-day use without interruption.
