Abstract
This paper propose the test method for a performance of the myoelectric hand prosthesis(MHP) controlled according to the myoelectric signal generated in the human muscle. The MHP consists of a mechanical hand, a surface myoelectric sensor(SMES) for a measuring myoelectric signal, a control system and a charging battery. The two commercialized MHP is tested for the grip endurance property. The test results is not difference a noise and a grip force. The proposed test method is proved the reliability of MHP by the endurance test.
