An Intelligent Glove System for Real‐Time Multiple Electrical Signal Acquisition and Display

摘要

Abstract Realizing multimodal tactile perception for robots is highly desirable for achieving more intelligent human–machine interaction. A real‐time intelligent glove system that can capture and monitor hand tactile information, including pressure, bending, and temperature is proposed. This system processes the collected data and visualizes the tactile information in a 2D image. The intelligent glove system integrates a palm‐shaped sensor unit, a multi‐channel data acquisition board, and a data analysis module. The glove consists of 34 flexible sensors, including 28 pressure sensors, five bending sensors, and one temperature sensor, which convert biological information into electrical signals. By enhancing the performance of the system, the intelligent glove achieves high sensitivity and good fault tolerance, allowing it to analyze the multimodal tactile information of the entire hand with fast responsivity. By analyzing the acquired multi‐channel electrical signals, the system can analyze object shapes and various gripping states. This work paves the way for wearable devices used in multimodal tactile perception and promotes the emergence of new modes of human–machine interaction.
