The HANDEx project aims to develop an interactive biomechatronic device enabling controlled and individualized eccentric-concentric finger training. The system will integrate motors, biomechanical sensors, and real-time feedback to support motor training, musculoskeletal injury prevention, and hand rehabilitation. The project specifically targets musicians, climbers, and individuals with neuromotor hand impairments.
