An Implantable Myoelectric Sensor Based Prosthesis Control System
2006 International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2006We present progress on the design and testing of an upper-extremity prosthesis control system based on implantable myoelectric sensors. The implant consists of a single silicon chip packaged with transmit and receive coils. Forward control telemetry to, and reverse EMG data telemetry from multiple implants has been demonstrated.

Compliant grasp in a myoelectric hand prosthesis
IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Magazine, 2005A novel myoelectric hand prosthesis consisting of electromyogram (EMG) signal processing units, a microprocessor-based dc motor servo system, and a 1 degree-of-freedom (DOF) end effector has been developed. The flexion angle and compliance of the finger of this prosthesis can be voluntarily controlled with EMG signals. The biomimetic controller for the

Design considerations in a myoelectric hand prosthesis
Proceedings of the Institution of Electrical Engineers, 1969The design of a myoelectric control system, for use with an electrically powered hand prosthesis, is described. This system, developed for the Ministry of Health from an experimental system due to Bottomley and Cowell, has proportional control of velocity and force.

[A myoelectric prosthesis for the forearm amputee].
Acta medica portuguesa, 1990The authors make a revision of the principles of action of the myoelectric prosthesis for the forearm amputees and describe their components. The indications and contra-indications (French law) are also referred. We can say as a conclusion that the great progress made in prosthesis in the last years were possible on account of synthetic materials and ...

Design of a Customized Myoelectric Hand Prosthesis
2016Hand amputation is typically the result of a traumatic injury and/or disease related complications. The loss of a hand has a profound physical and psychological impact on the amputee. A high quality prosthesis can be facilitative in restoring an amputee’s body image.

An electromyogram simulator for myoelectric prosthesis testing
Proceedings of the 2010 IEEE 36th Annual Northeast Bioengineering Conference (NEBEC), 2010Myoelectric prostheses use the naturally occurring surface electromyogram (EMG) produced by extant muscle tissue to provide amputees control of artificial limbs. Design and testing of these devices is currently performed using function generators or the healthy EMG signal of the tester.

Neural network classification of myoelectric signal for prosthesis control
Journal of Electromyography and Kinesiology, 1991An alternate approach to deriving control for multidegree of freedom prosthetic arms is considered. By analyzing a single-channel myoelectric signal (MES), we can extract information that can be used to identify different contraction patterns in the upper arm.
