Russian developers from the Sechenov University accelerator have created a method for restoring fine motor skills of hands using a drone. It consists of using a sensory glove, which helps maintain the patient's interest in rehabilitation, the NTI press service reported.
According to one of the authors of the project, Eva Dolnikova, the sensor built into the glove reacts to the user's movement and sends a signal to the quadcopter. This method of performing exercises helps to focus on progress.
If today the drone rose a couple of centimeters from the ground, then tomorrow it can fly around the apartment
The developers have completed the preparation of the complex itself and are working on a mobile application. It will help track the patient's results.
