Summary

This study tests whether a soft robotic glove called Carbonhand can help people with hand weakness from injury or nerve conditions perform daily activities at home. Five participants will use the glove for six weeks while researchers measure arm activity, grip strength, and well-being. It is a very small early study focused on understanding real-world use.
