Abstract: A virtual reality wearable system. The system includes a sensor, an actuator, a sleeve-type first wearable part fittable over a user's bodily part, the at least one second wearable part being wearable over the first wearable part. The first wearable part and the second wearable part are releasably connectable to each other. The at least one second wearable part supports the sensor and the actuator. A cable or cables connect the sensor and the actuator with a portion of the second wearable part distant from the sensor and the actuator. The at least one second wearable part comprises a first portion and a second portion that are separate from each other. The first portion is placeable on a first bodily part of a user, and said first portion supports the sensor and the actuator, and the second portion is placeable on a second bodily part of the user distant from the first bodily part.

Abstract: An individual linkage mechanism for a finger of an exoskeleton glove with sections that are interconnected with joints to enable changing their mutual angular orientation, which linkage mechanism includes a first linkage attached to the glove, a second linkage connected to the first linkage through a first joint, a third linkage connected to the second linkage through a second joint, and a fourth linkage connected to the third linkage through a third joint, wherein the fourth linkage is provided with a finger orthosis, and the second linkage, the third linkage and the fourth linkage are capable to assume a mutually parallel placement wherein the finger orthosis is adjacent to the second joint at a farthest end from the glove, and the third joint is closer to the glove than the second joint.
