Recently, many type of prosthetic hands have been proposed. Nonetheless, any active prosthesis needs patient's physiological signals to be controlled. Electromyography is one of the most used signals to control prostheses. However, EMG needs electrodes in contact with patient's skin. This study aims to test an alternative, easy to wear sensor able to detect muscle contraction and to control hand prosthesis...
The aim of this work is to contribute to the analysis and characterization of training with whole body vibration (WBV) and the resultant neuromuscular response. WBV aims to mechanically activate muscle by eliciting stretch reflexes. Generally, surface electromyography is utilized to assess muscular response elicited by vibrations. However, EMG analysis could potentially bring to erroneous conclusions...
