A sensor glove with conformal sensors based on ionic electroactive polymers for biomedical applications
摘要
A sensor glove with sensors based on ionic electroactive polymers allowing a person to control objects remotely is presented. Designs and prototypes of manipulator systems have been developed and manufactured, including a robotic hand, a virtual hand, and a microgripper, as objects controlled by the sensor glove. The ability to flex the fingers of the robotic and virtual hands and to operate the microgripper actuators on flexion of the corresponding fingers of the sensor glove is demonstrated.
