The glove - which could help with daily tasks such as opening jars - uses a sensor to pick up muscle activity along the wrist and forearm. It is by Edinburgh-based start-up BioLiberty.
BioLiberty co-founder Rowan Armstrong tests the new glove By Kristy Dorsey Technology start-up BioLiberty is aiming to roll out a robotic glove to help MS sufferers and others get a grip on daily tasks after securing space within the Edinburgh Business School Incubator. The company, founded by four electronic engineering students in March of last year, is hoping to complete a second prototype version of its glove within the next few months that will give occupational therapists and other healthcare professionals an opportunity to provide feedback on its performance.
