Flex Sensor Data Analysis for Hand Rehabilitation using Wearable Glove

Every day we encounter many people with unexpected situations where they suffer from many neuropathological diseases that cause a severe impact on the daily lives of individuals, especially about hand movements, thereby directly affecting the quality of their lives. Traditional methods often lack insights into personalized progress and optimal medication outcomes, which take longer to recover. We have designed an approach based on a novel concept using wearable technology to monitor and assess finger movements. The proposed solution of wearable device integrated flex sensor technology to enhance the rehabilitation process by providing real-time insights by the input of the flex sensors captured by the finger movements of the patients. By sensor data analysis, people get a chance to know their progress and the professionals gain accurate tracking of the progress so that they enhance identifying the areas of improvement and customize the treatment. This innovative approach to designing a wearable device serves as a helping aid to improve patient outcomes by categorizing the stages of improvement into Normal, Mild, and Severe Impairment for a better understanding and helps improve the rehabilitation experience.
