What if a pair of bionic gloves could enable a stroke victim to improve their dexterity while reconnecting with music? That’s the innovation a team of researchers in Florida is now working to develop.

Their flexible exoskeleton prototype uses artificial intelligence to help people suffering from the after-effects of a stroke to regain manual dexterity. It has been designed using 3D-printed polyvinyl acid stents and a hydrogel molding, to conform as closely as possible to the user's hand.
