Abstract :
This article describes the first steps on the development of a low cost dataglove based on the Arduino Uno microprocessor. The glove is designed for use in virtual reality systems and is integrated into a suite of applications. This article also presents a set of preliminary results obtained with the glove and discuss about the use of the glove to control a video game application for rehabilitation of stroke patients.
