Hand rehabilitation, following stroke or hand surgery, is a repetitive and long duration therapy that can be facilitated with the assistance of gloves based on sensors. These devices can be substituted by a simple and inexpensive system based on the images acquired by 4 cameras and numerical analysis. In this paper we present a numerical hand model used in this system which describes the kinematic of the hand. Preliminary experimental data to test the proposed model have also been reported.

Abstract
Hand rehabilitation, following stroke or hand surgery, is a repetitive and long duration therapy that can be facilitated with the assistance of gloves based on sensors. These devices can be substituted by a simple and inexpensive system based on the images acquired by 4 cameras and numerical analysis. In this paper we present a numerical hand model used in this system which describes the kinematic of the hand. Preliminary experimental data to test the proposed model have also been reported.File in questo prodotto:
