title: [A new adaptive hand prosthesis].
abstract: In the paper, a new adaptive hand prosthesis developed in the Institute of Applied Computer Sciences of the Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe is described. Starting from the state-of-the-art, the requirements of the hand prosthesis are derived and the realisation of the new prosthesis is shown. Finally the results obtained are discussed.
