無論是組裝、遠端操作、服務機器人還是醫療：ExoHand 可用於許多應用領域。氣動外骨骼可以像手套一樣戴上，從外部支撐人手，因而增強其力量和耐力。
Despite the high degree of automation, there are still many assembly activities in industry that can only be carried out by humans. This often results in monotonous and tiring movements that are constantly repeated. Such activities become challenging for older employees in particular. The ExoHand takes the strain off the user and could thus improve ergonomics in the workplace of the future.
In combination with a brain–computer interface (BCI), the ExoHand can be used as an active artificial hand to help stroke patients with symptoms of paralysis to renew the missing connection between brain and hand. For this purpose, an electroencephalography (EEG) signal measured at the head detects the patient’s desire to open or close the hand.
