| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Functional Assessment | Experimental | Participant will be asked to perform a series of tasks involving their prosthesis. These tasks can involve switching grips as well as moving objects. |

| Morph | Device | Morph is a small electric controller that is retrofit into existing myoelectric prostheses to equip them with wireless identification capabilities. Specifically, Morph allows the prosthesis to react to RFID tags in the environment. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Time required to perform different functional tasks | Each participant will perform functional tests on the first visit. These tests consist of moving objects from one location to another, and performing certain muscle contraction patterns when prompted. The participant will then take the prosthesis, installed with morph, home for 3 months at most, and then return to perform another set of timed trials. | 12 weeks |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Questionnaires on prosthesis function and satisfaction | The questionnaires offer the participant the opportunity to express their experience and satisfaction with their prosthesis, during different tasks and at home. | 20 minutes per questionnaire, total of 3 different questionnaires administered twice each |
