HEXOSYS II - Towards realization of light mass robotics for the hand (2012)
Conference Proceeding
Iqbal, J., Ahmad, O., & Malik, A. (2012). HEXOSYS II - Towards realization of light mass robotics for the hand. In 2011 IEEE 14th International Multitopic Conference (INMIC) (115-119). https://doi.org/10.1109/INMIC.2011.6151454

This research presents a prototype of a direct-driven, optimized and light-mass hand exoskeleton that is designed to fit over the dorsal side of the hand, thus retaining palm free for interaction with real/virtual objects. The link lengths of the pro... Read More about HEXOSYS II - Towards realization of light mass robotics for the hand.
