Controlling the upper limb prosthesis using muscular contractions requires the amputees intense and long period training, where frustration can lead to abandonment of the device.In this project we are proposing a Human Machine Interface (HMI) not only focused on muscular activity reading but in an innovative solution, based on computer vision.With a camera attached to the prosthesis, we desined a system that identifies objects, and suggests interactions based on the user's preferences.
