Design of an automatic optical system to measure anthropometric hand parameters

摘要

Personalized medicine is an effective tool to improve the quality of rehabilitation and treatment for patients with disabilities. This study deals with the development of a low-cost hand scanner for the acquisition of anthropometric measures. The data acquired by the scanner is used, thanks to the developed procedure, to tailor the dimensions of a hand exoskeleton. The exoskeleton is used for assistive and rehabilitation purposes.
