Abstract

In this study, the smart EMG sleeve is developed. Through integrating the wearable EMG device, the smart EMG sleeve become more comfortable, therefore the user will not feel the existence of electrodes. The proposed EMG sleeve can measure the EMG and movement of arm and the new kind of fabric electrode is also developed to reduce the drawback of traditional electrodes. The fabric electrodes can provide very comfortable feeling for user. In order to transfer the raw EMG to useful information, the Kalman filter is also introduced, then the relationship of filtered EMG and biceps torque are calculated. The proposed smart EMG sleeve not only measure the EMG signal, but also estimate the torque and can be used in homecare and exercise.
