Implementation of a glove as a computer man interface for people with motor disabilities

Abstract:

The gestures or movements that the hands can perform can be the control to do many tasks, such as moving a robot, writing text on a screen, etc. These features can be exploited, and together with technology, people with some type of disability can be helped. This work presents the design and construction of a glove equipped with a flexion sensor on each finger to perform different functions. These events emit an audible alert that is played on an audio system. The management system stores all events in a database. The results obtained are very encouraging and show that the prototype can be used for the control and monitoring of people with some type of motor disability.
