摘要

Now a days people having hand disabilities are increasing. The main causes of hand disabilities are cerebral palsy, stroke, spinal cord damage and aging. Those persons are not able to do their daily activities with the help of hands. So as a solution, here presents a soft wearable glove which can be handled easily by the patient.

A brain controlled wearable hand robot that can perform basic hand and finger function would greatly improve daily life of for people with hand motility problems. With the help of this wearable glove the patients can grasp objects having various shape and size. The control of the glove is done with the help of brain mapping.
