IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation EngineeringWearing robotic gloves has become increasingly crucial for hand rehabilitation in stroke patients. However, traditional robotic gloves can exert additional pressure on the hand, such as prolonged use leading to poor blood circulation and muscle stiffness.

Harp plucking robotic finger [PDF]
2012 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, 2012 — This paper describes results about the development of a repeatable and configurable robotic finger to pluck harp strings. Eventually, this device will be a tool to study string instruments in playing conditions. We used a classical robot with two degrees of freedom enhanced with silicone fingertips.

A Robot Motion Authoring Using Finger-Robot Interaction [PDF]
2009 Fourth International Conference on Computer Sciences and Convergence Information Technology, 2009 This paper proposes a robot motion authoring using finger-robot interaction. The proposed method is a user-friendly method that easily authors (creates and controls) robot motion according to the number of fingers. The effectiveness of the proposed motion authoring method was verified based on motion authoring simulation of an industrial robot.

A Biomimetic Soft‐Rigid Hybrid Finger with Autonomous Lateral Stiffness Enhancement
Advanced Intelligent Systems, 2022 The application of soft robotics improves the compliance of robotic fingers, which, however, usually loses sufficient stiffness. Here, a biomimetic soft‐rigid hybrid (BSH) finger that can achieve both inherent compliance and autonomous lateral stiffness ...

Design method for an anthropomorphic hand able to gesture and grasp [PDF]
, 2015 This paper presents a numerical method to conceive and design the kinematic model of an anthropomorphic robotic hand used for gesturing and grasping. In literature, there are few numerical methods for the finger placement of human-inspired robotic hands.

Wearable Robotic Glove Design Using Surface-Mounted Actuators
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020 We propose a novel wearable robotic glove or exo-glove design scalable to the variation of the hand kinematics. While most of the traditional robot hand is driven by rotating the joint directly with a rigid body, our exo-glove deforms a robotic finger's ...
