The glove uses an Arduino’s analog to digital converter to read some flex sensors. Commercial flex sensors are pretty expensive, so he experimented with some homemade sensors.

As difficult as it is for a human to learn ambidexterity, it’s quite easy to program into a humanoid robot. After all, a ...

Development of a lightweight robotic glove is moving closer to the ultimate goal of assisting patients in their ability to grasp objects independently.

If you ask this particular team of University at Hertfordshire researchers, they'll tell you it's with the help of a robotic glove called SCRIPT or Supervised Care and Rehabilitation Involving ...

This time last year, we looked at Neofect’s Raphael, a “smart glove” designed to help patients rehabilitate a hand after a stroke. At this CES, the Korean company is showing off a brand new ...

Serial modder Ben Heck created a cool Minority Report-inspired , with hand gestures to counteract these issues. Basically, the controller is a glove with an embedded Arduino microcontroller and ...

German robot maker Festo is having a good week. After thoroughly impressing us with its oddly graceful robot that flies by turning itself inside out, now its robotic manipulator hand grabbed our ...

A glove kitted out with flex sensors is used to operate the fingers, with vibrating motors linked to pressure sensors in the hand providing haptic feedback.

Remote-controlled robot arms allow submersible operators to perform tasks underwater. But can you imagine a rigid metal limb interacting with something as fragile as jellyfish or corals? To be ...

It’s true–but it’s also awkward to do at best. Serial modder Ben Heck created a cool Minority Report-inspired glove to control the console, with hand gestures to counteract these issues.
