1P1-F03 Motion Discrimination for Myoelectric Hand by Data Interpolation Between Posture Angles in Consideration of Arm Motion(Welfare Robotics and Mechatronics (2))

Abstract

The purpose of this research is the motion discrimination by electromyography(EMG) considering the angle change of the upper arm. Myoelectric signals with another shoulder and elbow motions have the potential for causing the false discrimination, which leads to the serious accidents. Therefore this study proposes a discrimination method with linear interpolation of the training data between shoulder and elbow angles. Some experiments show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
