| description | This study presents the design, fabrication, and evaluation of ffexible tactile sensors
integrated data glove for gesture recognition.
The primary objective was to develop a comfortable, cost-effective wearable device
capable of monitoring ffnger joint movements accurately. The data glove
integrates ten ffexible sensors, each attached to a ffnger, to capture the nuances
of hand gestures. Through a series of experiments, we collected data on static
gestures and applied ffltering techniques to enhance the signal quality. The results
demonstrated the potential of our ffexible sensor-based system in recognizing
a range of gestures with reasonable accuracy.
Despite the promising outcomes, the project faced challenges, including data
noise due to the sensors’ sensitivity to minor movements and the limited diversity
of the gesture dataset. Future work will focus on reffning sensor design
for better conformity with ffnger joints, expanding the gesture library, and enhancing
real-time gesture recognition capabilities. The study concludes that with
further development, ffexible sensor technology holds signiffcant potential for applications
in wearable computing and human-computer interaction. |
