Abstract

Currently, there is a lack of easy-to-use hand rehabilitation devices which not only retrain motor functions, but also include somatosensory information of the interaction with tangible virtual objects to also regain sensory function. To overcome these shortcomings, we are developing a novel haptic rehabilitation device that focuses on usability, enforces physiological movements and provides haptic rendering capabilities.
