Research abstract
Fully computerized knitted glove with a laid-in restraining circumferencecial yarn member enable the complete CAD/CAM of a dexterous seamless glove that offer both protection while maintaining tactility and restraining pressure. Although CAD/CAM knitted glove do exist, none offer the the added feature of restraining the internal pessure. Knitted structures are not associated normally with the ability to restrain pressure, but rather for their elasticity, and good fit. The present proposal is advocating to develop a knitted structure to combine the internal pressure restraining with the comfort and fit, and selected areas knitted with different yarns.
