A review of sensors for artificial hands is presented in terms of their range, specifications and characteristics. There is a growing need for sensors due to the development of prosthetic hands that have multiple degrees of freedom requiring finger coordination into different postures. The sensing of force, position (angle), object-slip and temperature allows for the control of these hands automatically and frees the user from cognitive burden. To make the best possible use of individual sensing elements, future controllers will need to combine data from different types of sensor. They may also have an integral power supply using a small battery or harvest energy from their environment and transmit data wirelessly.
本文从范围、规格和特性方面对人工手传感器进行了综述。由于具有多个自由度且需要手指协调成不同姿势的假肢手的发展，对传感器的需求日益增长。力、位置（角度）、物体滑动和温度的传感能够自动控制这些手，并使使用者从认知负担中解脱出来。为了尽可能充分利用各个传感元件，未来的控制器将需要整合来自不同类型传感器的数据。它们还可能有一个使用小电池的内置电源，或者从周围环境中获取能量，并进行无线数据传输。
