1. When moving objects in sequence, able-bodied individuals exhibit prominent look-ahead fixations 2. Able-bodied individuals spend little, if any, time fixating on their own hand
3. Prosthetic users do not exhibit strong look-ahead fixations, and spend significant time fixating on their terminal device, especially during object transport
Reinnervation Surgeries
Complete data collection from prosthetic users, including some with increased sensory feedback from specialized prostheses Data collection from able-bodied participants using a specialized sensorimotor bypass prosthesis
Potential data collection from individuals experiencing other sensorimotor neurological deficits
Future Directions
Objectives Long-term • Use limb and eye tracking technologies to provide a more sensitive
measure of prosthetic limb use with and without sensory feedback [4]
Current project • Establish normative eye tracking data from able-bodied subjects
on 2 functional tasks • Simple enough to gather data from • Complex enough to emulate day-to-day movements
Supplementary project • Preliminary comparison of eye movements of prosthetic users to
those of able-bodied participants
Current Evaluation Procedures • Box and Blocks [3]
• Fails to give robust information • Clinical assessments
• Expensive, inconsistent, time intensive
Upper-limb Prostheses Rejection Rates • Passive 39% • Body-powered 26% • Myoelectric 23% [2]
Methods Equipment • Binocular 60 Hz mobile Eye-tracker
Cups Pasta 1. Eye tracking Only
2. Motion tracking Only 3. Both eye and motion tracking
SCENE CAMERA
PUPIL CAMERAS
• Synchronization of eye and motion tracking systems • Enables segmentation of eye data by phase of movement
• 120 Hz Motion tracker with 12 IR cameras
Participants • 20 able-bodied (complete) • 6 prosthetic users (in progress) Protocol • 20 repetitions of 2 daily living tasks under 3 conditions (120 trials)
