We provide a preliminary report on work to relate the EMG activity from forearm flexors and extensors to the flexion-extension forces generated at the finger tips during constant-posture, slowly force-varying contractions. EMG electrode arrays (up to 64 channels) were applied over the flexor and, separately, extensor musculature of the forearm. Spatial filters were used to create derived EMG channels...
Although asynchronous intrafascicular multi-electrode stimulation (IFMS) can evoke fatigue-resistant muscle force, a priori determination of the necessary stimulation parameters for precise force production is not possible. This paper presents a proportionally-modulated, multiple-input single-output (MISO) controller that was designed and experimentally validated for real-time, closed-loop force-feedback...
In this study, we investigated the behavior of active motor units identified via analysis of electromyographic (EMG) signals recorded from the first dorsal interosseous (FDI) muscle using a quadrifilar needle electrode. Data was collected from control subjects and patients with both upper (UMN) and lower (LMN) motor neuron dominant forms of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). EMG recordings were...
This paper describes a real-time isometric pinch force prediction algorithm using surface electromyogram (sEMG). The activities of seven muscles related to the movements of the thumb and index finger joints, which are observable using surface electrodes, were recorded during pinch force experiments. For the successful implementation of the real-time prediction algorithm, an off-line analysis was performed...
