robot gloves for stroke patients
Through the coordinated application of sensors, microcontrollers, and an easy-to-wear design compliant with human engineering, these gloves bring innovative solutions to rehabilitation for stroke patients in their hands. These gloves enable wearers to reclaim hand movements and finger movements they had lost. The result of numerous functions, these gloves supply aid with grasping or holding on automatically; interim support while pressing something under conditions which are not understood for an interim period; force-feedback at key moments. Technological in general terms, these gloves are comprised of flexible sensors which respond to the user's intent; microcontrollers that manage the glove motions, and a lightweight breathable structure suitable for prolonged use by patients at home or in physical therapy. These gloves are mainly used in physical therapy and at home, enabling stroke patients to carry out their daily activities and therapeutic exercises more effectively.
