Abstract

The paper will present the definition of a Prosthetic Bus, specifing an application profile based on I²C standard. Aim of this definition is to realize an upper limb prosthesis control oriented bus, wich grants an efficient sensors and actuators management, with the possibility both of centralized and distributed control, trought the transmission and reception of high level command and data.The enlarge possibility and reconfigurability of the system will be necessary aspects on following discussion.
