Abstract
A wearer is made to judge, based on a detection result by a signal detection unit, either one of an opposition movement, an adduction movement, a flexion movement, and an extension movement of a thumb; and a linear member drive unit is controlled to pull or relax each linear member corresponding to the judged movement in order to cause the thumb's intrinsic muscles and/or extrinsic muscles, which are required for the judged movement, to generate an assist force.
