The RoboGlove developed by GM and NASA is a "force multipler" that adds strength and grip to the human hand to allow more consistent effort when performing repetitive tasks. Research shows fatigue can occur within a few minutes of continuously gripping a tool. GM is licensing the RoboGlove intellectual property to Bioservo Technologies AB, a Swedish medical technologies company that will combine RoboGlove with its owner patented SEM glove technology.
