Adaptive Electrical Muscle Stimulation Improves Muscle Memory [PDF]
Electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) has been leveraged to assist in learning motor skills by actuating the user's muscles. However, existing systems provide static demonstration—actuating the correct movements, regardless of the user's learning progress.

Perceptual simultaneity and its modulation during EMG-triggered motion induction with electrical muscle stimulation. [PDF]
When human movement is assisted or controlled with a muscle actuator, such as electrical muscle stimulation, a critical issue is the integration of such induced movement with the person's motion intention and how this movement then affects their motor ...

Force Sensation Induced by Electrical Stimulation of the Tendon of Biceps Muscle
Many wearable interfaces have been proposed to present force to the upper limb and elbow joint. One way to achieve a compact wearable haptic interface is to use electrical stimulation, and we have suggested that transcutaneous electrical stimulation ...
