Through wearable products, utilizing game-based interactive therapy, it exercises their hand functions while simultaneously engaging in cognitive exercises for the brain. Combining cognitive training and physical exercise create a bond of hardware and software mode, based on the Unity platform and Arduino devices. Exerting game therapy make finger exercise full of entertainment and practicality !
GripMate
Game Glove
Hand exercising glove
These gloves are crafted for hand exercises, capturing workout data for hand muscle groups. They sync real-time finger status to lots of computers, TVs, tablets, and more, doubling as a customizable game controller. Available in various sizes, they ensure comfort and cater to diverse hand-training needs.
Goodhealth And Well-Being
Sustainable developmentdepends on ensuring healthy lives.More efforts are needed to raise life expectancy.
Used to help exercise and restore hand function based on neuroplasticity in the brain, utilizing glove interaction to improve brain vitality.

Survey Summary
Most respondents reported experiencing hand fatigue or stiffness at times, which may be related to daily hand activities in the workplace. A small proportion of respondents reported experiencing pain or discomfort in their hands, which warrants further attention.se programs.
Only a small percentage of respondents were in the habit of performing hand exercises, focusing mainly on finger exercises and grip strength exercises. A certain percentage of people said that they exercised more frequently each week.
The vast majority of people use smart devices, mainly for texting and swiping screens. This may have an impact on hand health and the length and frequency of smart device use needs to be monitored.
A small number of people participate in recreational activities that require hand coordination, while participation in outdoor hand sports is relatively low. Encouraging a variety of hand sports may be beneficial to hand health.
The majority of respondents were willing to try new forms of hand exercise, while a portion indicated specific hand health needs. Opportunities exist for designing more attractive exercise programs.

After five generations of model iterations, this version is used as an official final product model for production printing.
Product Parts Drawing
User Test Record
After the final product was produced, I gave the product to different groups, including white-collar workers, children, teenagers and the elderly, for user testing.
Summary :
The product price is low, the development cost is also low. The sensor is compact and affordable. The cost of the whole set of products can be controlled within 100 US dollars.
After feedback from different testers, the glove can provide effective training in most cases, and can interact with electronic devices, ensuring fun training.
In the future it can not only be used as a training instrument, but even for control devices such as game controllers. And can be used in TV, mobile phone, tablet and other display devices.
The device can also be used as a multi-functional controller for people with hand dysfunction, through the interaction with the glove, the signal can not only be uploaded to the game controller part, but also can be used in daily life, such as controlling smart furniture.
