Grasping and manipulation are two of the most important hand functions that allow people to efficiently execute activities of daily living. Over the last years, many robotic devices have been proposed to assist people who suffer from neurological conditions by enhancing their grasping capabilities. In this work, we focus on the development of a robotic exoskeleton glove that can increase the grasp...
