نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper describes a new method and system, designed for application to upper extremity prosthesis. Artificial limb with our new system is robot arm controlled by EMG signals and monitored and corrected by set of ultrasonic sensors. The control system used to control robotic arms measured EMG signals from muscles and the signal from the ultrasonic sensors detect obstacles in the robot's motion. By ultrasonic sensors is creating and updating map of robot environment. The sensor system can identify objects in 3D space and control system can chooses an adequate reaction. The system is designed as an assistive technology for disabled people. Prosthetic arm was controlled and method verified by MATLAB/Simulink.

Prediction of Above-elbow Motions in Amputees, based on Electromyographic(EMG) Signals, Using Nonlinear Autoregressive Exogenous (NARX) Model
Introduction In order to improve the quality of life of amputees, biomechatronic researchers and biomedical engineers have been trying to use a combination of various techniques to provide suitable rehabilitation systems. Diverse biomedical signals, acquired from a specialized organ or cell system, e.g., the nervous system, are the driving force for the whole system. Electromyography(EMG), as a...
متن کاملImplantable Myoelectric Sensors (IMES)
We are developing a multi-channel/multifunction prosthetic hand/arm controller system capable of receiving and processing signals from up to sixteen Implanted MyoElectric Sensors (IMES). The appeal of implanted sensors for myoelectric control is that EMG signals can be measured at their source providing relatively cross-talk free signals that can be treated as independent control sites. Therefo...
متن کاملReal-Time Classification of Electromyographic Signals for Robotic Control
Advances in bioengineering have led to increasingly sophisticated prosthetic devices for amputees and paralyzed individuals. Control of such devices necessitates real-time classification of biosignals, e.g., electromyographic (EMG) signals recorded from intact muscles. In this paper, we show that a 4-degrees-of-freedom robotic arm can be controlled in real-time using non-invasive surface EMG si...
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...
متن کاملDesign and Development of a Low Cost Multi-DOF Bionic Arm using Control Assist Mode Functionalities
Bionic arm is an artificial device which replaces the lost arms of physically challenged persons to gain back some of its functions. Present bionic arms are controlled by ElectroMyoGraphy (EMG) signals. These devices are rejected by many due to the cost, weight, less Degree Of Freedom (DOF) and mainly because of the invasive procedures used to obtain better signals. This incorporates fear in am...
