Researchers have developed an improved vision-based pipeline for upper-limb prosthetic devices to better recognize graspable object parts in complex environments. The new method modifies the hardware setup by incorporating a laser pointer for object disambiguation and retrains deep convolutional neural networks. This approach enhances target disambiguation accuracy by up to 9% without increasing computational cost, utilizing mixed reality to procedurally generate realistic images for training. AI
