Gripping control of the manipulator is still a technical problem in its research field. Accurate,
efficient, and lossless crawling remains a challenge due to the difficulty of controlling grip …

Soft robotics is a rapidly evolving field offering novel solutions in the development of
wearable technologies. Soft pneumatic artificial muscles in particular, have seen …

Grasp synergies lead to identification of underlying patterns to develop control strategies for
five-fingered prosthetic hands or exoskeletons. Data gloves play a crucial role in study of …

The objective assessment of motor impairment resulting from neurological disorders forms
the basis for effective rehabilitation and therapeutic programs. Such assessments conducted …

Upper limb movement disorders significantly hamper the ability of impaired to perform basic
activities of daily living (ADL). Eating, without doubt, is one of the essential ADLs necessary …

The slacking behaviour or lack of participation from impaired patients during robotic
rehabilitation therapy is one of the factors that slow down their recovery. The implementation …

Musculoskeletal models of the hand rarely include fingerpad contact mechanics, thereby
limiting our ability to simulate and examine hand-object interactions. The objective of this …

Human grasps involved in activities of daily living rely on the correlation of multiple degrees
of freedom in a hand. This correlation is called grasp synergies and holds promise for …

Upper limb disability is one of the major adversities faced by post-stroke patients. Eating is
one of the fundamental activities of survival for all living beings. The robotic rehabilitation …

In literature, sign language recognition (SLR) has been proposed using multi-channel data
acquisition devices with various sensing modalities. When using wearable sensors …
