The use of EMG signal in human-machine interface

Journal Title: Automatyka - Year 2015, Vol 19, Issue 2

Abstract

In this paper, the analysis and processing algorithms of EMG signals have been presented. The main purpose of the research was to verify the usefulness of EMG signals in controlling a bionic prosthesis or exoskeleton. The physiological nature of the EMG signal has been introduced. An original measurement system has been presented. Analysis of the time and frequency domains of the signal has been conducted to extract vital information that the signal carries. Methods of using the EMG signal as a control signal for devices that operate in a human-machine interface have been proposed. The result shows that a processed EMG signal can be used as a basis for a simple control system.
