Fully Wearable Actuated Soft Exoskeleton for Grasping Assistance in Everyday Activities

Worldwide, over 50 million people suffer from persistent hand impairments after stroke or spinal cord injury (SCI). This results in major loss of independence and quality of life. Robotic hand exoskeletons can compensate for lost motor function and assist in grasping tasks performed in everyday activities. tenoexo is a fully wearable assistive soft hand exoskeleton for daily activities.

Currently, we are performing a series of user tests and hope to make this research prototype available to the public in the future.
