Increasing Electrical Muscle Stimulation's Dexterity by means of Back of the Hand Actuation
International Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2021 We propose a technique that allows an unprecedented level of dexterity in electrical muscle stimulation (EMS), i.e., it allows interactive EMS-based devices to flex the user's fingers independently of each other.

Electrical vs manual acupuncture stimulation in a rat model of polycystic ovary syndrome: different effects on muscle and fat tissue insulin signaling. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 In rats with dihydrotestosterone (DHT)-induced polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), repeated low-frequency electrical stimulation of acupuncture needles restores whole-body insulin sensitivity measured by euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp.

Actuating Myself: Designing Hand-Games Incorporating Electrical Muscle Stimulation
ACM SIGCHI Annual Symposium on Computer-Human Interaction in Play, 2021 Motor movements are performed while playing hand-games such as Rock-paper-scissors or Thumb-war. These games are believed to benefit both physical and mental health and are considered cultural assets.

Mimicking muscle activity with electrical stimulation [PDF]
Journal of Neural Engineering, 2011 Functional electrical stimulation is a rehabilitation technology that can restore some degree of motor function in individuals who have sustained a spinal cord injury or stroke. One way to identify the spatio-temporal patterns of muscle stimulation needed to elicit complex upper limb movements is to use electromyographic (EMG) activity recorded from ...

Is Electrical Stimulation Useful for Patients with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy? A Mini-review
Journal of Modern Rehabilitation, 2023 Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a hereditary progressive neuromuscular disease of childhood. The survival rate of DMD patients is extremely low. In physiotherapy, electrical stimulation is frequently applied to rehabilitate these patients.

Adaptive Electrical Muscle Stimulation Improves Muscle Memory [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2025 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsElectrical 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.
