Introduction

Product description:

The Cyber Glove is really light, comfortable, and instrumented with 10 bend sensors. It get resistance value of the bend sensor to measure finger motion into real time cloak angle data. It measure data with Energia first, then convert to Python.

Cyber Glove Features:

With flex sensor high-accuracy joint-angle measurements

Real-time cloak data

Lightweight comfort

Repeatable, high-resolution data

Packing list.

The Cyber Glove data glove comes with the following items:

Cyber Glove data glove

Tiva TM4C123G

Chronodot ultra precise real time clock v2.1

AC/DC power supply

CyberGlove sensor cable

STEP BY STEP

PIC needed provide whole glove pic with showing power button

1.  Ensure glove is on securely and all straps are tight and turn on the power. (make sure anything is not loose and green light is up)

2.  Turn on the Power. Green light will be on.

3.  Verify indicator LED for indicate test mode.

4.  Push switch one until red light start flash.

5.  Place Hand on flat surface, with fingers together.

6.  Push switch one and verify blue light flash once. Then it will go back to red flash.

7.  Put Micro controller store position data as a variable to use as a zero point.

8.  Wrap hand around test rectangle (1.5 by 1.5 inch), with assistant verify position. This is 90 degree measurement.

9.  Push switch 1 and verify blue LED flash twice. Then it will go back to red flash.

10.  Microcontroller stores position data as a variable to use as a point.

11.  Wrap hand around test shape 1, with assistant verify position. This is 45 degree.

12.  Push switch 1 and verify blue LED flash three times. Then it will go back to red flash.

13.  Microcontroller stores position data as a variable to use as a point.

14.  Wrap hand around test shape 2, with assistant verify position. This is 135 degree.

15.  Push switch 1 and verify blue LED flash four times. Then it will go back to red flash.

16.  Microcontroller stores position data as a variable to use as a point.

17.  Indicator LED turns off to indicate mode is done. LED Should return to green. No more red light.

18.  Wait a minutes to glove to calculate hand's movement and bending sensor. (All calibration should be done)

19.  Move hands and see how data change slowly as you slowly move your finger.

20.  If calibration is wrong or data is wrong, restart from step 2

PIC for real time cloak data on computer.

21.  If calibration is correct, check real time cloak with hand movement

PIC for python data on computer.

22.  Verify data is transferring Energia to python and check if anything is wrong
Tomb, Pinky finger, Ring finger, Middle finger, and Index finger

23.  Everything is complete.

Revision: A

  1. Ensure glove is on securely and all straps are tight.
  2. Power system on.
  3. Indicator LED turns on to indicate test mode.
  4. Place hand on flat surface, with fingers together.
  5. Push sw1.
  6. Microcontroller stores position data as a variable to use as a zero point.
  7. Wrap hand around test rectangle (1.5 by 1.5 inch), with assistant verifying position.
  8. Push sw2.
  9. Microcontroller stores position data as a variable to use as a high point.
  10. Place hand on 45 degree calibration block
  11. Push sw1.
  12. Microcontroller stores position data as a variable to use as a middle point.
  13. Indictor LED turns off to indicate run mode.
  14. Wait a minute to glove to calculate hand’s movement and bending sensor. (At this point, calibration should be done.)
  15. Move hands and see how data change in computer without pike and real time cloak match. (If data is not collect restart from step 2 after power off.)
