A three-layer sensing system that gives prosthetic and robotic hands a stable, reflex-like grip without expensive tactile arrays: a micro-switch for open and closed states, motor current to estimate force, and a fingertip piezo sensor that detects slip and triggers a rapid increase in grip force.
Aims to drive several joints of an arm exoskeleton from a single motor to cut size and weight.

Turns muscle signals into something users can see: a VR system that measures thigh-muscle activation with surface EMG and shows it in real time on a colour-coded 3D leg.
