Abstract
The aim of the present paper is to illustrate the phases of design and application of an innovative input source for an EMG upper limb prosthetic arm: a laryngophone, otherwise called throat microphone (t-mic). In the last years several different input sources were explored, from the implantable myoelectric sensors to the mechanomyographic sensors. The idea of controlling a prosthesis with vocal commands is quite recent but seems to be promising in helping users to better control their devices, improving the quality of their life.Mesh:
