RELab tenoexo: functions and grasp types

RELab tenoexo is an actuated hand exoskeleton for therapy and assistance in daily life. The project goal is to provide grasping assistance to individuals suffering from moderate to severe hand impairment following spinal cord injury or stroke. Tenoexo is designed to be lightweight and user friendly, such that it can be worn all day. With its intuitive control based on muscle signals tenoexo can improve residual motor function and help increase independence and quality of life.

This video shows the main functions tenoexo supports: finger flexion and extension, thumb flexion and extension, and thumb opposition. With these functions tenoexo can execute the most common grasp types we use in daily living.
