Modeling of tendon driven soft wearable robot for the finger

Control of tendon driven wearable robot cannot be performed with rigid frame model because of nonlinearity factors of the robot. To control the tendon driven wearable robotic hand, development of model for tendon driven wearable robot hand is inevitable. As a first step, modeling of MCP joint flexion has been developed and presented in this paper.
