Physiotherapy Rehab Glove Kit – Build a Five-Finger Mirror Hand with Real-Time Motion Tracking

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

For physiotherapists, biomedical engineers, and rehabilitation specialists, this kit delivers a fully functional robotic hand that mirrors the operator’s finger movements in real time. Flex sensors on a control glove capture subtle bends, while five independent servo motors pull tendon lines across 15 joints to reproduce grip patterns used in post‑injury hand therapy. The result is a tool that accelerates research into assistive wearables and customisable rehabilitation sequences.

What You'll Build

You assemble a sensorised glove and a 3D-printed right hand with individually controlled fingers. When you wear the glove and flex any finger, the corresponding robotic finger follows with low latency. Force-sensitive resistors on the fingertips provide grip‑strength feedback, allowing you to set and monitor torque limits. The entire system is programmable via Arduino Mega, so you can design repetitive therapy routines, log patient progress, or integrate EMG sensors later.

What You'll Learn

• Integrate multiple flex sensors and FSRs with real‑time signal conditioning for medical‑grade motion tracking
• Program a PCA9685 driver to synchronise five servo motors controlling 15 tendon lines without crosstalk
• Solder a multi‑board PCB stack and route stable 5V power to avoid jitter in precise physiotherapy movements
• Calibrate sensor thresholds and servo limits to match a patient’s active range of motion for safe rehabilitation
