Haptic Glove Using Tendon-Driven Soft Robotic Mechanism

Abstract: Recent advancements in virtual reality and augmented reality call for light-weight and compliant haptic interfaces to maximize the task-performance interactivity with the virtual or extended environment. Noting this, we propose a haptic glove using a tendon-driven compliant robotic mechanism. Our proposed interface can provide haptic feedback to two fingers of a user, an index finger and a thumb. It can provide both cutaneous and kinesthetic feedback to the fingers by using the tendon-driven system. Each actua… Show more

“…In the future, the robotic surgical system will be improved and perfected towards being more intelligent, small, and reasonably priced. The introduction of tactile gloves [ 63 ], cell image navigation [ 64 ], fluorescence imaging [ 65 ], and other technologies into robotic surgery can help doctors determine key anatomical structures, determine tumor boundaries in solid organs, and evaluate blood perfusion in target tissues. The surgical instrument can be advanced to the surgical site through a non-linear path, thereby increasing the flexibility of the operation and breaking through the limitations of the surgical scope [ 66 ].…”

“…These actuators have been applied to assistive gloves (Fig. 2d) [37,53], wearable extra finger [38] and haptic glove [54]. They have also been used in exosuits for the shoulder [55], elbow (Fig.…”

“…When using tendon-driven gloves, the actuators can be placed apart from the glove’s body to prevent the oversized glove from interfering with human hand movement. Previously, researchers combined tendons with a variety of actuators, such as shape memory alloys [ 21 ], twisted string actuators [ 22 ], and DC motors [ 23 ]. The use of a motor-tendon system avoids occupying too much volume on the back of the hand, provides the sufficient force, and allows simple control.…”

“…However, the current motor-tendon-driven gloves lack knowledge of whole-hand finger postures, limiting their application in assessing finger motions and rehabilitation. In addition, the general tendon-driven gloves either provide force feedback only to the thumb and index finger [ 21 , 23 ] or drive the five fingers using two tendons [ 22 ], exhibiting an oversimplified design and a low degree of freedom.…”
