| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study is to development of muscle strength evaluation system using surface electromyogram (sEMG) in the manual muscle testing. In this study, sEMG was detected by the glove-type electrode consisting of multi-channel electrodes. Three themes for achieving this purpose is as follows, (1) development an algorithm to find the innervation location objectively from sEMG, (2) application to muscular activity evaluation using its algorithm, and (3) availability of electrode prepared conductive cloth toward simplified sEMG measurement.
In the results, new algorithm could estimate the innervation location at 88%. Next, difference of muscular activity by aging was shown by the experiment using its algorithm. In the measurement by glove-type electrode, the subject felt discomfort feeling to pressing of the pin-electrode and many noise was mixed in sEMG. The electrode of conductive cloth could be measured low noise sEMG and discomfort feeling of subject was low.
