Instead of just a passive device with acosmetic look current devices come with improved functionality utilizing robotics technology. There are various ways to actuate a prosthetic hand including deploying DC motors, servo, hydraulics, pneumatics, SMA wire and many more. This research presents the conceptual design of a UiTM Neuroprosthetic Hand controlled by Electroencephalography (EEG). EEG signals were recorded from the Motor Cortex through brain wave rhythm at specific locations on the scalp. It involves the development of a graphical user interface to control the robotic hand using the imaginative hand movements of the patient. Analysis will be done until clear rhythmic waves are obtained for the control of the neuroprosthetic hand. ER -
