ABSTRACT
Advances in technology, design, and manufacturing processes are leading to noticeable improvements rehabilitation management. In this paper, we introduce MGlove-TS, an actuated soft glove based on twisted string actuators (TSAs) developed assist support individuals with hand impairments limiting active movements grasping force their process daily living. The is designed be lightweight, portable, easy wear use, comfortable for prolonged periods, a little encumbrance, flexible adaptable, highly modular. paper presents the main features of proposed prototype actuating thumb index finger flexion/extension adduction/abduction movements. has been evaluated through series tests, whose results showed its potential usefulness.
