Natural movement
Compliant actuation for fluid motion that can follow the user’s intent.
Artificial muscles for more natural human movement.
MYONEX LAB artificial muscles bring compliant, sensing, lightweight actuation to prosthetic systems—enabling movement that feels natural, intuitive, and effortless.
Why it matters
Compliant actuation for fluid motion that can follow the user’s intent.
Force that can change with the object and the environment — a core goal for upper-limb systems.
Embedded sensing for tighter closed-loop control without a bolted-on sensor suite.
High power-to-weight architecture reduces fatigue and increases wearability.
Technology in prosthetics
Sarcomite-based muscle modules are being explored for hands, wrists, and upper-limb prosthetic systems — scalable force with built-in compliance. This is a research direction, not a cleared medical device.
Multi-resolution actuation aimed at delicate, precise hand and wrist motion.
Responsive interaction through inherent yield and elasticity in the fiber.
Modular architecture that can map onto different prosthetic platform layouts.
Applications
Actuation concepts for shoulders, elbows, and arm systems under research.
Dexterity and adaptive grip for prosthetic hand actuators — still in the lab.
Exploring adaptive assistance that can follow recovery and training programs.
Direct, intuitive interaction with tools and digital controls.
Build the future together
We work with researchers and device teams exploring artificial muscle actuators for upper-limb prosthetic systems.
