An Extended Spatial Transformer Convolutional Neural Network for Gesture Recognition and Self-Calibration Based on Sparse sEMG Electrodes.

IEEE transactions on biomedical circuits and systems
sEMG-based gesture recognition is widely applied in human-machine interaction system by its unique advantages. However, the accuracy of recognition drops significantly as electrodes shift. Besides, in applications such as VR, virtual hands should be ...

sEMG-Based Hand Gesture Recognition Using Binarized Neural Network.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Recently, human-machine interfaces (HMI) that make life convenient have been studied in many fields. In particular, a hand gesture recognition (HGR) system, which can be implemented as a wearable system, has the advantage that users can easily and in...

Research of intent recognition in rehabilitation robots: a systematic review.

Disability and rehabilitation. Assistive technology
PURPOSE: Rehabilitation robots with intent recognition are helping people with dysfunction to enjoy better lives. Many rehabilitation robots with intent recognition have been developed by academic institutions and commercial companies. However, there...

Pleasant Stroke Touch on Human Back by a Human and a Robot.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Pleasant touching is an important aspect of social interactions that is widely used as a caregiving technique. To address the problems resulting from a lack of available human caregivers, previous research has attempted to develop robots that can per...

Toward a generalizable deep CNN for neural drive estimation across muscles and participants.

Journal of neural engineering
High-density electromyography (HD-EMG) decomposition algorithms are used to identify individual motor unit (MU) spike trains, which collectively constitute the neural code of movements, to predict motor intent. This approach has advanced from offline...

On lightmyography based muscle-machine interfaces for the efficient decoding of human gestures and forces.

Scientific reports
Conventional muscle-machine interfaces like Electromyography (EMG), have significant drawbacks, such as crosstalk, a non-linear relationship between the signal and the corresponding motion, and increased signal processing requirements. In this work, ...

Leg Muscle Activity and Joint Motion during Balance Exercise Using a Newly Developed Weight-Shifting-Based Robot Control System.

International journal of environmental research and public health
A novel and fun exercise robot (LOCOBOT) was developed to improve balance ability. This system can control a spherical robot on a floor by changing the center of pressure (COP) based on weight-shifting on a board. The present study evaluated leg musc...

Electroencephalography Reflects User Satisfaction in Controlling Robot Hand through Electromyographic Signals.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
This study addresses time intervals during robot control that dominate user satisfaction and factors of robot movement that induce satisfaction. We designed a robot control system using electromyography signals. In each trial, participants were expos...

Neuromodulation with transcutaneous spinal stimulation reveals different groups of motor profiles during robot-guided stepping in humans with incomplete spinal cord injury.

Experimental brain research
Neuromodulation via spinal stimulation has been investigated for improving motor function and reducing spasticity after spinal cord injury (SCI) in humans. Despite the reported heterogeneity of outcomes, few investigations have attempted to discern c...

Reliability of active robotic neuro-navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation motor maps.

Experimental brain research
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) motor mapping is a safe, non-invasive method used to study corticomotor organization and intervention-induced plasticity. Reliability of resting maps is well established, but understudied for active maps and un...
