From a human hand
to a robot hand.

Metagloves Pro → SharpaWave
Sharpa publishes a Linux C++ acquisition client and Python retargeting examples for Metagloves Pro and SharpaWave. The repository identifies its purpose as integration and demonstration.

Droid has not executed this stack. The reviewed repository does not establish sustained production uptime, task success or support for every Wave hardware revision.
What is supported by the record?
| Question | Evidence level | Decision |
|---|---|---|
| Is an integration example published? | Manufacturer repository | Yes. Acquisition and retargeting are described together. Sharpa Robotics ↗ |
| Is this a measured production deployment? | Not established | No production success rate, intervention burden or uptime has been established in this review. |
| Does it cover every Wave revision? | Unresolved version mapping | Match the physical hand, firmware and SDK to the example before reuse. |
| Is a common interface enough? | Droid engineering interpretation | Check joint order, units, axes, limits, timing and failure behavior at every boundary. |
Turn a code example into a measured pilot.
- Pin the repository commit, glove release, hand revision, firmware and runtime. Record licenses and support responsibilities before using the stack.
- Replay a small fixture of known poses. Compare joint order, handedness, zero positions, limits and units with the actual robot model.
- Start without motion, then use a supervised low-speed test. Establish what happens after tracking loss, stale data, a network interruption or an operator stop.
- Log timestamps at acquisition, retargeting and actuation. Measure delay distributions and failures across complete sessions, not only a successful clip.
- Evaluate the intended task with an explicit acceptance test. Retargeting quality and autonomous task success are different outcomes.
This is a planning outline, not a substitute for the equipment’s operating and safety instructions.
