Clinical Background
Every 40 seconds, someone in the United States has a stroke
Approximately 60% of the individuals who survive a stroke require rehabilitation.
Long-term impairment of the arm
The recovery of hand functions is of paramount importance.

Robotic and virtual reality training = great potential in the field of rehabilitation
Preliminary clinical tests: positive results
Multiple repetitions + progression + feedback = increasing effectiveness

• Accurate data• Keep the sensors close to the hand to
make sure they read the movement• The useful number of sensors printed on
the mask
• Wearability: easy donning and doffing

•A new glove:No fabric on the palmar side of the handClip components to avoid migration of the glove
•A mask with a reduced number of sensors ( from 20 to 11) provides a shorter and more comfortable glove
•A box containing the wires in order to not interfere the natural movements.
Conclusion and Further Developments

Wearability and fabric comfort will be evaluated with usability tests.
A new glove has been developed to improve usability wearability and functionality of the entire system.
Data Collection to figure out the effectivness of the new mask will be held
