Dataglove for consumer applications

摘要

Sensory gloves are promising technologies for human/machine interface and sign language translation. For theses applications, all degrees of freedom of the human hand have to be monitored with a good precision. For now, there is no sensory glove on the market meeting these requirements at low cost for widespread consumer applications. This paper describes a prototype of low cost sensory glove based on coupling loss fiber optics flexion sensors.
