Human arm impedance and EMG in 3D
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper shows the relationship between EMG signals and human arm stiffness, measured in 3-D space. Preliminary results demonstrate the viability of this approach, which can then be used to measure human arm impedance from EMG only. Understanding human stiffness during interaction tasks will allow the development of an appropriate skill transfer exercise for Programming-by-Demonstration. Making the human aware of her own stiffness adaption gives a better understanding towards programming a robot impedance controller.

Impedance characteristic of human arm for cooperative robot
Control systems for cooperative robots should be designed to work imitating human characteristics. In this study, we tried to investigate the impedance characteristic of human arm in a cooperative task. Human arm was moved in a desired trajectory. The motion was actuated by a 1 degree-of-freedom robot system. Trajectories used in the experiment were minimum jerk (the rate of change of accelerat...
متن کاملTele-impedance: Teleoperation with impedance regulation using a body-machine interface
This work presents the concept of tele-impedance as a method for remotely controlling a robotic arm in interaction with uncertain environments. As an alternative to bilateral force-reflecting teleoperation control, in tele-impedance a compound reference command is sent to the slave robot including both the desired motion trajectory and impedance profile, which are then realized by the remote co...

− The present paper proposes a human interface regulating the viscoelastic characteristics of the robot manipulator by the EMG signals picked up from the subject. The desired trajectory intended by the subject is generated through the bilinear internal arm model with the EMG input signals, and then the viscoelastic coefficients of robot manipulator are regulated corresponding to the sum of the ...
متن کاملIdentification of Human Limb Stiffness in 5 DoF and Estimation via EMG
To approach robustness and optimal performance, biological musculoskeletal systems can adapt their impedance while interacting with their environment. This property has motivated modern robotic designs including variable-impedance actuators and control methods, based on the capability to vary visco-elastic properties actively or passively. Even though variable-impedance actuation and impedance ...
متن کاملBiomimetic Impedance Control of an EMG-Based Robotic Hand
The number of extremity amputations resulting from workplace mishaps, traffic accidents and other incidents has shown an increasing trend over time, although the importance of safety management and the prevention of such accidents is fully recognized. Since precise and complex motion may be very difficult in the daily activities of amputees, the development of prosthetic systems is necessary to...
