A therapeutic glove, which enables medical non-professionals to perform physiotherapeutic gripping and holding movements on patients, would significantly improve the healthcare situation in physiotherapy. The glove aims to detect the orthogonal pressure load and provide feedback to the user. The use of textile materials for the glove assures comfort and a good fit for the user. This, in turn, implies a textile realization of the sensor system in order to manufacture both the glove and the sensor system in as few process steps as possible, using only one textile manufacturing technique. The flat knitting technology is an obvious choice here. The aim of the study is to develop a textile capacitive pressure sensor that can be integrated into the fingertips of a glove using flat knitting technology and to evaluate its sensor properties with regard to transmission behavior, hysteresis and drift. It was shown that the proposed method of a flat knitting sensor fabrication is suitable for producing both the sensors and the glove in one single process step. In addition, the implementation of an entire glove with integrated pressure sensors, including the necessary electrical connection of the sensor electrodes via knitted conductive paths in three fingers, was successfully demonstrated.
