چکیده

This paper presents the work on a technology for Real time EMG acquisition and recognition of head movement. EMG signal detection and analysis is useful in various clinical and biomedical applications such as generation of control signal for prosthetic tool, but better solutions for detecting noise free EMG signals need to be developed. In this paper a simple and cost effective method for estimating human head movements from neck EMG signals is proposed. In this work, surface EMG signal is acquired from four main neck muscles (right and left sternocleidomastoid muscles and right and left trapezius muscles) using simple computer interface and processed by MATLAB based filter algorithm for online clean display.

Generating the Visual Biofeedback Signals Applicable to Reduction of Wrist Spasticity: A Pilot Study on Stroke Patients

Introduction: Application of biofeedback techniques in rehabilitation has turned into an exciting research area during the recent decade. Providing an appropriate visual or auditory biofeedback signal is the most critical requirement of a biofeedback technique. In this regard, changes in Surface Electromyography (SEMG) signals during wrist movement can be used to generate an indictable visual b...

EMG-based Fatigue Assessment During Endurance Testing With Different VT Protocols

BACKGROUND: Muscle fatigue can be defined as the failure of a muscle to maintain a reasonably expected force output. The multivariate approach to fatigue assessment is used because the multiple (EMG) feature provides more information than anyone. OBJECTIVE: This study presents a method of assessing muscle fatigue during endurance testing at 50% maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) using electro...

Comparative Analysis of Wavelet-based Feature Extraction for Intramuscular EMG Signal Decomposition

Background: Electromyographic (EMG) signal decomposition is the process by which an EMG signal is decomposed into its constituent motor unit potential trains (MUPTs). A major step in EMG decomposition is feature extraction in which each detected motor unit potential (MUP) is represented by a feature vector. As with any other pattern recognition system, feature extraction has a significant impac...

Real-time Wireless System based on Multiple Bio-signal Parameters for Drowsiness Detection

In recent years, traffic accident is one of the critical reasons to cause deaths of drivers. Drivers’ drowsiness has been implicated as a causal factor in many accidents because of the marked decline in drivers’ perception of risk and recognition of danger, and diminished vehicle handling abilities. Consequently, if the mental state of drivers could be real-time monitored, drowsiness detection ...
