Development of wireless data glove for unrestricted upper-extremity rehabilitation system

摘要

This paper proposes a data glove for a rehabilitation robot interface for the upper-extremity paralysis. The designed data glove uses seven flexible sensors to measure the flexion angles of fingers and wrist. We verified the performance of the data glove using a 3D graphic interface from we developed. From experimental results, we show the proposed data glove is feasible to sense the hand motions and applicable to robot interface.
