since the fingers do not reach the lower part of the hand's palm, you could experiment to stick the sensor in that area and run the cables in the slot going to the wrist.

Richard, I don't have any ideas on using the I/R detector. Not sure how that would look. You see something there but you don't know if you've captured it.

I did not like the sensors on the Inmoov sight but don't have a better idea.

It would be interesting if they had cheap load cells/strain gauges that could tie inline with the fish string. That way, if you where tightening grip and load increased before you got to the end of servo travel you would know you have something. Unfortuneately you would need a cell for each finger and it would probably get expensive even if they had cells that small.
