Estimation of Upper Limb Joint Angle Using Surface EMG Signal
In the development of robot-assisted rehabilitation systems for upper limb rehabilitation therapy, human electromyogram (EMG) is widely used due to its ability to detect the user intended motion. EMG is one kind of biological signal that can be recorded to evaluate the performance of skeletal muscles by means of a sensor electrode. Based on recorded EMG signals, user intended motion could be ex...
متن کاملElectromyography-Based Quantitative Representation Method for Upper-Limb Elbow Joint Angle in Sagittal Plane
This paper presents a quantitative representation method for the upper-limb elbow joint angle using only electromyography (EMG) signals for continuous elbow joint voluntary flexion and extension in the sagittal plane. The dynamics relation between the musculotendon force exerted by the biceps brachii muscle and the elbow joint angle is developed for a modified musculoskeletal model. Based on th...
متن کاملVisual Cues to Improve Myoelectric Control of Upper Limb Prostheses
The instability of myoelectric signals over time complicates their use to control highly articulated prostheses. To address this problem, studies have tried to combine surface electromyography with modalities that are less affected by the amputation and environment, such as accelerometry or gaze information. In the latter case, the hypothesis is that a subject looks at the object he or she inte...
متن کاملIMU-based Joint Angle Measurement Made Practical
This contribution is concerned with hinge joint angle calculation based on inertial measurement data in the context of human motion analysis. Unlike most robotic devices, the human body lacks even surfaces and right angles. Therefore, we focus on methods that avoid to assume a certain mounting orientation, i.e. certain orientations in which the sensor should be mounted with respect to the body ...
متن کاملOnline Estimation of Elbow Joint Angle Using Upper Arm Acceleration: A Movement Partitioning Approach
Estimating the elbow angle using shoulder data is very important and valuable in Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) systems which can be useful in assisting C5/C6 SCI patients. Much research has been conducted based on the elbow-shoulder synergies.The aim of this study was the online estimation of elbow flexion/extension angle from the upper arm acceleration signals during ADLs. For this, ...
