Neofect NeoMano robotic glove helps paralyzed hands grip again

Neofect, a Korean company known for rehabilitation tools such as the Rapael Smart Board and the Rapael Smart Glove, showed off a prototype of the NeoMano. It's made of leather and looks a bit like an archery glove that covers just the thumb, index and middle finger.

NeoMano is a wearable, soft robotic hand created by Neofect that enables and empowers people with hand paralysis to perform daily activities. It fits over the thumb, index, and middle finger while leaving the other fingers and part of the hand uncovered. With the use of NeoMano, people with hand paralysis have the ability to move their fingers in order to perform daily activities like hold and drink a cup of water, brush their teeth, or turn a doorknob to open a door. It does this by providing an active grasp to maintain grip, followed by passive release. NeoMano helps gain independence and confidence in performing everyday tasks for people who have lost hand function from spinal cord injury, nerve injuries or other neurologic or orthopedic conditions.
