description A significant number of people with disabilities rely on assistive devices, yet these technologies often face limitations, including restricted functionality, inadequate user-centered design, and a lack of standardized evaluation metrics. While upper-limb prosthetics remain a key research focus, existing commercial solutions still fall short of meeting daily reliability and usability needs, leading to high abandonment rates. CYBATHLON integrates assistive technologies into daily living tasks, driving innovation and prioritizing user needs. In CYBATHLON 2024, the HANDSON hand secured first place in the arm prosthesis race, showcasing breakthroughs in human–robot integration. This paper presents the HANDSON hand’s design, core technologies, training strategies, and competition performance, offering insights for advancing multifunctional prosthetic hands to tackle real-world challenges.
