Abstract
This paper describes a sensor based control that releases a user of prosthetic hands from the continuous attention usually required in opening and closing actions. Besides this local control, the sensory information is used to generate some feedback to the user for the perception of the progress of the hand operation. This control and feedback constitutes a compromise solution between the simplest clinical prosthetic hands and the more advanced dexterous robotic or even prosthetic hands
