Finger kinematics of natural hand movements recorded by an exoskeleton data glove in younger and elderly persons

Abstract

The data set provides measurements using a SenseGlove DK1.3 exoskeleton data glove while healthy younger and elderly participants performed natural hand movements. Specifically, participants were asked to perform six types of hand-movements where each finger (D2-D5) was used once per trial to perform a grip movement together with the thumb resulting in a sequence of four finger movements per trial.
