Smart Glove With Fully Integrated Textile Sensors and Wireless Sensor Frontend for the Tactile Internet

In this letter, we present a smart glove for Tactile Internet applications. The individual finger motions are measured via resistive strain sensors. The strain sensors are directly integrated with the textile glove and are produced in an automated process. The sensor glove is integrated with sensor conditioning, controller, wireless frontend, and battery. We investigate the measured sensor data for a variety of gestures, demonstrating the good quality of the data allowing for easy and low-energy gesture recognition.
