Low-Cost Self-Calibration Data Glove Based on Space-Division Multiplexed Flexible Optical Fiber Sensor.

ABSTRACT: Wearable devices such as data gloves have experienced tremendous growth over the past two decades. It is vital to develop flexible sensors with fast response, high sensitivity and high stability for intelligent data gloves. Therefore, a tractable low-cost flexible data glove with self-calibration function based on a space-division multiplexed flexible optical fiber sensor is proposed. A simple, stable and economical method was used to fabricate flexible silicone rubber fiber for a stretchable double-layered coaxial cylinder. The test results show that the fiber is not sensitive to the temperature range of (20~50 °C) and exhibits excellent flexibility and high stability under tensile, bending and torsional deformation. In addition, the signal detection part of the data glove enables compact
