Abstract

A need for a prosthetic hand device has arisen based on the fact that many people lose one of their upper limbs for various reasons. Many systems are available to control prosthetic hands, such as electromyography (EMG) and mechanomyography (MMG). These systems present many problems, including complexity, high cost, and other issues. Voice commands are among the solutions recommended to address these issues. The proliferation of the Internet, voice recognition technology built into mobile phones, and Internet of Things (IoT) technology has facilitated the use of voice commands to operate prosthetic devices. In this paper, robotic prosthetics were controlled using this technology in the context of five different movement classes. This study involved five participants and reports as accuracy rate of 97%.
