1. A sensor system, comprising:

  • a flexible substrate for alignment or integration with a portion of a glove;

    a plurality of conductive trace groups formed directly on the substrate at sensor locations corresponding to at least some finger joints of a human hand, each of the conductive trace groups including two or more conductive traces, wherein resistance between the conductive traces in each of the conductive trace groups varies with force on piezoresistive material in contact with the conductive trace group; and

    circuitry configured to receive a signal from each of the conductive trace groups and generate control information in response thereto, the control information representing the force on the piezoresistive material in contact with each of the conductive trace groups.
