This study presents the Prosthetic Upper-Limb Sensory Enhancement (PULSE), a novel dual feedback device completely integrated into a prosthetic socket. The core of the system includes two compact vibrotactile actuators and two silicone chambers in contact with the user’s skin. These components provide high-frequency tactile cues for initial contact and surface information (e.g. texture) as well as...
