This paper presents the design and development of a sensorized soft robotic glove based on pneumatic soft-and-rigid hybrid actuators for providing continuous passive motion (CPM) in hand rehabilitation. This hybrid actuator is comprised of bellow-type soft actuator sections connected through block-s...
