| Sumario: | This thesis presents contributions to the characterisation of hand kinematics during product manipulation in activities of daily living (ADLs). The main contributions have been: (í) providing quantifiable data of several technical aspects regarding the use of instrumented gloves for motion capture of hand kinematics during ADLs: their effect on manual skills, fitting problems, etc., (ii) providing an outline of the kinematic requirements of feeding and cooking tasks for a healthy population, identifying task groups requiring extreme postures or velocities in specific joints, as well as providing extensive data and making it available to the research community in a public repository, and (iíí] presenting an overview of the effects of the design characteristics of assistive devices (ADs) on hand kinematics, as a basis for the selection of the most suitable AD depending on the patient's impairments. |
