    Abstract
    Despite the advancement of technology in the world still some parts of the work are done by human hands. Gloves that increase fingers force can cause less fatigue, greater accuracy and efficiency in carrying out their duties in person.Also patients with muscle weakness due to M.S. or apoplexy, or elderly people are unable to do the simplest tasks. A wearable robotic glove that can restore hand function can increase the quality of life for people with mobility problems. The aim of this research is to design, build and control a conceptual prototype of a flexible wearable robot to increase fingers force by cable mechanism; and in this glove, force and position control concurrently is done by...

    Abstract
    The aim of this article is design, fabricate, and control a conceptual prototype of a flexible wearable robot to increase fingers’ force using a novel cable mechanism. In this robot, force and position are controlled in separate phases by a fuzzy system equipped with emotional learning. A Flexible structure has been chosen for this robot, because flexible gloves are lighter and much more suitable for use in daily tasks compared to rigid structures. Since this system is supposed to be substituted for weak or damaged limb, it should have a behavior similar to the body organs as much as possible. Therefore, a novel mechanism, inspired by the natural movement mechanism of the human hand, has...
