Abstract

Surface Electromyographys (sEMG) as a widespread human-computer interaction method can reflect the activity of human muscles. When the human forearm finishes different hand motions, there will be strong sEMG signals in different regions of the skin surface. This paper investigates the mapping relationship between sEMG signal patterns and the dynamic hand motions. Four different hand motions are studied based on the extracted signal with mean absolute value (MAV) features and the shape-preserving piecewise cubic interpolation method. In the experiments, a 16-channel electrode sleeve is used to collect 9-subject EMG signals. According to the distribution of electrodes in the forearm, the forearm surface is divided into 8 different muscle regions. The preliminary experimental results show that different hand motions can cause different distribution of sEMG signals in different regions. It confirms that different subjects show similar patterns for the same motions. The experimental results can be applied as new sEMG features with a higher computational speed.
