| Research Abstract |
Waterproof active EMG electrode was developed for welfare equipment. The qualities of measured signals in the air or water were compared. The result was that the minimum force level did not changed in each condition. For the future development, a prototype of wireless system was made and the communication protocol for reducing electric power consumption was also developed.
The prosthetic arm was made as trial models. In order to reduce the price or simplicity of controller, a servomotor was adopted. The position and impedance was controlled by EMG activities.
