  Abstract

Many studies on developing assistive technologies such as Soft robots or Exoskeletons for paralyzed patients by damaged central or peripheral nervous system are carried on. For these technologies, a device can measure patients’ body movements or poses will be required. In this study, therefore, we devised a wearable glove including small-thin silicon-based strain sensors filled with liquid metal. First, to serves as an accurate hand poses measurement device from different hands size of paralyzed patients, we established a simple calibration method that can be applied on low-power MCUs. Second, we established a noise reduction algorithm that assures our wearable gloves can measure patients’ hands movement in stable. Our methods for wearable gloves will be applied for recognizing patients’ hands movement, monitoring movement aids to decide working well or not and finally can be applied for a criterion for testing wearable robots such as Soft robots and Exoskeletons. Also, we are expecting that our methods can be used for other body parts such as arms, legs and feet.
