Abstract
Wearable sensing gloves and sensory feedback devices that record and enhance the sensations of the hand are used in healthcare, prosthetics, robotics, and virtual reality. Recent technological advancements in soft actuators, flexible bioelectronics, and wireless data acquisition systems have enabled the development of ergonomic, lightweight, and low-cost wearable devices. This review article includes the most up-to-date materials, sensors, actuators, and system-packaging technologies to develop wearable sensing gloves and sensory feedback devices. Furthermore, this review contemplates the use of wearable sensing gloves and sensory feedback devices together to advance their capabilities as assistive devices for people with prostheses and sensory impaired limbs. This review is divided into two sections: one detailing the technologies used to develop strain, pressure, and temperature sensors integrated with a multifunctional wearable sensing glove, and the other reviewing the devices and methods used for wearable sensory displays. We discuss the limitations of the current methods and technologies along with the future direction of the field. Overall, this paper presents an all-inclusive review of the technologies used to develop wearable sensing gloves and sensory feedback devices.
