2A2-B03 A Wearable Light-Emitting Sensor Suit for Supporting the Motion Perception(Sense, Motion and Measurement(2))

Abstract

This paper proposes a novel technique to visualize upper and lower-limb human motion by means of surface electromyography, and measuring kinematics of human motion. The developed wearable light-emitting sensor suit indicates lower-limb muscle activity on the surface of the body in real time, by displaying the shape of the innervated muscle on the position of targeted muscle. We investigated the possible applications of the sensor suit in the fields of rehabilitation, and indicate the method of future rehabilitation.
