Recently, applications of the illusory kinesthesia, which is a misdetection of own motion, have been focused on. The illusory kinesthesia is an illusion phenomenon caused by giving mechanical vibration to muscle tendons. This phenomenon is expected to be utilized for habilitations, motion skill assist for sports and so on. However, the mechanism of the phenomena is not clear yet. Therefore, this study suggest the new movement instruction law using the fixed-quantity evaluation of the exercise illusion with the living body signal. This paper investigates the effect to EMG signals of the illusory kinesthesia for the motion skill assist. Some experimental results suggested that the illusory kinesthesia relates to human muscle activity.
