FLEXotendon Glove-III: Soft Robotic Hand Rehabilitation Exoskeleton for Spinal Cord Injury

ICRA 2021poster

Cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) can severely impact hand motor and sensory function, and accordingly, patients with SCI are often unable to complete basic everyday tasks without assistance. In recent years, there has been an increase in hand exoskeleton research due to their distinct advantages fo…

Patient-Specific, Voice-Controlled, Robotic FLEXotendon Glove-II System for Spinal Cord Injury

RA-L 2020

Reduced hand function in spinal cord injury (SCI) patients is commonly associated with a lower quality of life and limits the autonomy of the patient because he/she cannot perform most tasks independently. Robotic rehabilitation exoskeletons have been introduced as a method for assisting in hand fun

Voice-Controlled Flexible Exotendon (FLEXotendon) Glove For Hand Rehabilitation

IROS 2019poster

In this work, we propose a voice-controlled hand rehabilitation device driven by exotendons. A smartphone-based voice recognition system interprets user intention and is utilized for various grasping tasks. A bio-inspired tendon routing mechanism provides four-degrees-of-freedom (DoFs) across the th…
