“…The methodology was particularly popular to estimate muscle and joint forces during spinal loading (Cromwell et al, 1989;Cho lewicki and McGill, 1994;Cholewicki et al, 1995;Cholew icki and McGill, 1996;Granata and Marras, 1995;Nussbaum and Chaffin, 1998;Thelen et al, 1994;van Dieen et al, 2003;Marras et al, 1999). It has also been used for muscle force prediction during arm movements (Manal et al, 2002;Langenderfer et al, 2005;Soechting and Flanders, 1997), isometric tasks of the elbow (Manal and Buchanan, 2003;Wang and Buchanan, 2002) and the wrist (Buchanan et al, 1993). Utilization of the method for the lower extremity included walking (Amarantini and Martin, 2004) and running (Lloyd and Besier, 2003).…”

“…To achieve this, the information bandwidth of input should be expanded, the efficiency of input should be improved and the naturalness of human-robot interaction should be enhanced. Currently, the information sources for the control of prosthetic upper limb are pictures from computer vision, signals from generic sensor, Electroencephalogram (EEG), and EMG (Cavallaro et al, 2006;Pau et al, 2010;Cososchi et al, 2006;Reyes et al, 2012;Manal et al, 2002;Prentice et al, 2001;Lloyd and Besier, 2003;Moeslund and Granum, 2001) • Input from computer vision…”

“…EMG can be used to recognise human movement patterns, especially in the joint motion identification of the upper and lower limb (Pau et al, 2012a;Manal et al, 2002;Lloyd and Besier, 2003;Feng et al, 1999). The recognition results have already been widely used in the control strategy of humanoid mechanical and artificial prosthesis.…”

“…For feature extraction, using time-domain characteristics is simpler than the frequency-domain's, but as muscle contraction force changes, its feature changes which reduce the stability of identification. It has been used mostly in myoelectric prosthetic hands and occasionally used for predicting muscle force (Manal et al, 2002;Buchanan et al, 2005). Frequency-domain method is relatively stable and conducive to the follow-up EMG pattern recognition.…”

Assistive robots have made great contributions to disabled people in physiotherapy and rehabilitation areas. The interface between patients and medical devices plays a significant role for patients to operate these kinds of robots. This review introduces the current research and development of neuromuscular interfaces, especially the new research directions with special focus on modelling of musculoskeletal systems for interfacing purposes. The paper also summarises the function and prominent advantage of using surface electromyography (sEMG) signals for the interface. The elbow joint was used as an example to go through the working steps of both human biological systems and neuromuscular interfaces. Further developments were also discussed to improve the interface to meet medical demands.

“…We therefore coated the wire with nano platinum black, which significantly decreases the electrical impedance. 3 However, the interaction between such electrodes and organisms needs further clarification. The use of platinum wire as an implanted electrode material has a long history, and there are many reports in the literature.…”

Objective: To study the interactive influence of implanted nano platinum black electrodes (as compared with pure platinum electrodes) on rabbit orbicularis oculi muscle morphology and function.Methods: The influence of the two types of electrode on the orbicularis oculi muscle was monitored in a rabbit model of facial paralysis. Biological electric current and exciting current were administered to biological tissue, and morphological and functional changes were identified. Changes in orbicularis oculi muscle contraction, electrode configuration and performance associated with long-term electrical stimulation were observed over 28 days of implantation.Results: The nano platinum black electrode was superior to the pure platinum electrode in the following aspects: morphology and functionality, electrical excitation function of the orbicularis oculi muscle (as assessed by electromyography), muscle contraction function and biological tissue changes. Furthermore, the nano platinum black electrode features had good stability.Conclusion: Microelectrode surface modification with nano platinum black can effectively increase the microelectrode surface area and improve electrode performance, and is associated with good tissue compatibility.
