Wearables developed for human body signal detection receive increasing attention in the
current decade. Compared to implantable sensors, wearables are more focused on body …

This article presents a review of patents and scientific articles on the development of robotic
gloves used in remote control systems and medical applications. The aim of the work is to …

Patients suffering from neuromuscular diseases experience motor disabilities which hinder
their independence during activities of daily living (ADLs). For such impaired subjects …

We present a novel soft exoskeleton providing active support for hand closing and opening.
The main novelty is a different tendon routing, folded laterally on both sides of the hand, and …

Lower limb exoskeletons and exosuits (“exos”) are traditionally designed with a strong focus
on mechatronics and actuation, whereas the “human side” is often disregarded or minimally …

Exoskeletons and other wearable devices benefit from sensor systems that are based on
biofeedback for detecting muscle activity. However, such sensor systems in wearable …

The rehabilitation process after the onset of a stroke primarily deals with assisting in
regaining mobility, communication skills, swallowing function, and activities of daily living …

This paper presents the development and application of an optical fiber-embedded tendon
based on biomimetic multifunctional structures. The tendon was fabricated using a …

This article presents the study of the stability of single-input and multiple-input systems with
point or distributed state delay and input delay and input saturation. By a linear …

Force myography (FMG) detects hand gestures based on muscular contractions, featuring
as an alternative to surface electromyography. However, typical FMG systems rely on …
