Anne Tryphosa Kamatham is a Ph.D. scholar, and also a Prime Minister’s Research Fellow, at the Centre for Biomedical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi. She received bachelor’s degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering from JNTU, Kakinada in 2017 and master’s degree in Bioengineering from Christian Medical College, Vellore – Sree Chitra Tirunal Institute for Medical Sciences and Technology, Trivandrum in 2020.
Anne’s research interests include bioinstrumentation, sensors and measurements, and human physiology. She worked as an undergraduate student trainee at Assistive Technology Lab (SVECW, Bhimavaram – UMass Lowell), where she developed an instrumented glove that can decode hand gestures to speech to facilitate communication for speech impaired individuals. For her master’s thesis, she developed a novel wearable plethysmography device for functional assessment of venous hemodynamics. At Rehabilitation, Instrumentation and Sensory Engineering (RISE) Lab of IIT Delhi, her current research focus is to develop wearable sonomyography system for sensing muscle activity and control of upper extremity bionics. The objectives of her research include development of wearable sonomyography hardware, proportional control of multiple degrees of freedom of a bionic hand, and demonstration of functional tasks in trans-radial amputees in real-time.
