Abstract

Abstract : This work takes the production and usage scenarios of the data glove as the research object and studies the method of applying the flexible sensor to the data glove. Many studies are also devoted to exploring the transplantation of flexible sensors to data gloves. However, this type of research still lacks the display of specific application scenarios such as gesture recognition or hand rehabilitation training. A small amount of experimental data and theoretical analysis are difficult to promote the development of flexible sensors and flexible data gloves design schemes. Therefore, this study uses the self-made flexible sensor of the research group as the core sensing unit to produce a flexible data glove to monitor the bending changes of the knuckles and then use it for simple gesture recognition and rehabilitation training.
