Scientific reports·2026

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Rehabilitation Technology
  • Geriatric Assessment

Background:

  • Grip force measurement is crucial for identifying pathologies, assessing muscle function, and guiding rehabilitation.
  • Grip strength correlates with functional independence in the elderly, often assessed using tools like the Index of Activities of Daily Living.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce an autonomous, communicant grip-force measurement device for at-home use.
  • To enable convenient grip-force evaluation for home-based rehabilitation and functional assessments.

Main Methods:

  • The Domo-Grip system comprises the Grip-Ball (pressure sensor), Grip-Box (communication hub), and Grip-Soft (interactive software).
  • This integrated system allows for remote and continuous monitoring of grip force.
