Abstrakt: The article focuses on a technique designed to quantify phalangeal pressures and forces while gripping through the analytical allocation of interface pressure cells to finger phalanges. It notes that the forces and pressures affecting the hand during the use of tools have been considered as risk factors for injuries and disorders of the hand. It relates several processes involved in the study, one is kinematic modeling. It adds that a better approximation of the projected curve was ensured by defining longitudinal silhouette edges with interval points.
