FingerTPS Systems

Each FingerTPS system supports two hands with 6 sensors each. The main system includes the sensors, wrist-mounted interconnect harness, rechargeable wireless interface module, and USB Bluetooth transceiver. In addition, FingerTPS systems include a high quality webcam for video input and a USB load cell for calibration.

FingerTPS sensors are made from a soft, conductive Lycra® that conforms to the finger to allow dextrous operations such as typing or writing, and are fastened with small Velcro
® straps. Four FingerTPS sensor shapes are available: finger (available in small, medium, and large sizes), thumb (slightly shorter and available in small and large sizes), palm, and "band-aid" (available in small and large sizes) for measuring loads on inner phalanges.

The wireless interface module can be recharged using a USB port and runs continuously for over 2 hours.
