Abstract
For a very long time, people have wished for a way to repair a broken limb and make it work again. The limbs are responsible for the vast majority of human movement, grasping, and other actions. If you lose them, your mental and physical health will suffer drastically. The quality of life for amputees continues to improve as new and better prosthetics are developed thanks to advancements in technology. Effective use of prostheses requires that they be at-tached to the user's natural body in some way. The development of prosthetic limbs, therefore, relies heavily on the findings of studies examining prosthetic limb interfaces. This paper pro-vides a summary of the research conducted on prosthetic interface technologies since 1985 through a method of literature review. The purpose of this paper is to provide a concise over-view of the current technologies employed in the field of prosthetic interfaces and to specu-late on the direction of future research and development in this area.
