Improving the functionality of hand prostheses using non-invasive techniques controlled by the user intention continues being a focus of interest.Although myoelectric control has been widely studied, there are still lacks in the functionality and its applicability in real-time.Additionally, the application of myoelectric prostheses on amputees is still a challenge due to different factors related to non-clinical environments, as well as variations inherent in these subjects.This opinion includes a brief perspective of the trends to be addressed, in order to improve the functionality of these prosthetic devices.
