…per the relevant research results published in IEEE Transactions on Robotics, the hand exoskeleton is based on “magnetorheological (MR) actuators to provide high gripping support and elevate grip endurance.” And it adopts a very different solution from most existing hand exoskeletons, which are “motorized, being weak in generating high supporting force for gripping augmentation,”…

…the research team also conducted simulated earthquake rescue…In the task of transporting the injured, compared to when they did not wear the exoskeleton gloves, the subjects’ respiratory rate decreased by an average of 20 percent, while the maximum transport distance increased by 110 percent…

Participants wearing the hand exoskeletons experienced a 41.8 percent enhancement in grip strength without external power…
