Cable-Controlled Arm Prostheses
The functions of Cable-Controlled arm prostheses are controlled by the user’s body, for example, with the residual limb and/or the shoulder girdle.
Myoelectric Arm Prostheses
Myoelectrically controlled arm prostheses are externally powered prostheses, which means that they are not driven by the muscle strength of the patient, but with the aid of electric power. The arm moves by the myoelectrical impulses generated every time a user's muscles contract.

Passive Arm Prostheses
Cosmetic, or so-called passive arm prostheses, are worn by those who have difficulty operating active prostheses, or by those who consider their appearance very important. The prosthesis helps complement the image they have of their body, but limits functionality.
