Abstract
The goal of this work is a sensitive tactile human hand prosthesis design, to help people without one or both hands. This design is based on a detailed sensitive tactile human hand study and a tactile system for robotic hand. The result, a 256 sensitive contact points system, has the capacity to detect and send the pressure of each point to the human arm skin through noninvasive electrodes; this it can do through a sensitive surface and spicological training
