System design for a pediatric physical therapy strength testing glove

The goal of this project is to develop a strength testing glove that will improve current methods of muscle strength measurement by enabling physical and occupational therapists to quantitatively assess patient progress. The project was realized through research, human testing, prototype construction, component testing, and analysis of data. This design will provide a cheaper, more flexible, more versatile, and more quantitative method of muscle strength measurement for medical professionals. This design could potentially change the current approach pediatric physical therapists take in testing and tracking patients muscle strength.
