Abstract
The need for a means of assistance in human grasping, to compensate for weakness or to augment performance, is well documented. An appealing new way of doing so is through soft, wearable robots that work in parallel with the human muscles. In this paper we present the design and modelling of a tendon-driving unit that empowers a wearable, soft glove. Being portability one of our main objectives, we use only 1 motor to move 8 degrees of freedom...
