Nevedac Electronic Hand (presently not available) is working with microswitches, because an alternative to the myo-electric prosthesis is the Switch Control System. In this system, micro-switches are used which are activated by fitting these inside the socket where muscle signal or stump contact with the micro-switch, is most prominent.
