The journey of a prosthetic user is characterized by the opportunities and the limitations of a
device that should enable activities of daily living (ADL). In particular, experiencing a bionic …

This review discusses the critical issues and recommended practices from the perspective of
myoelectric interfaces. The major benefits and challenges of myoelectric interfaces are …

Hand prostheses controlled by surface electromyography are promising due to the non-
invasive approach and the control capabilities offered by machine learning. Nevertheless …

Invasive electromyography is a well-established diagnostic tool that has been used for
decades by neurologists. Recently, new and alternative devices have increasingly become …

Objective. A signal-based metric for assessment of accuracy of motor unit (MU) identification
from high-density surface electromyograms (EMG) is introduced. This metric, so-called pulse …

This document is an update and extension of ICCN Standards published in 1999. It is the
consensus of experts on the current status of EMG and Neurography methods. A panel of …

Upper-limb amputation imposes significant burden on amputees thereby restricting them
from fully exploring their environments during activities of daily living. The use of intelligent …

The term 'synergy'–from the Greek synergia–means 'working together'. The concept of
multiple elements working together towards a common goal has been extensively used in …

The surface electromyography (sEMG) records the electrical activity of muscle fibers during
contraction: one of its uses is to assess changes taking place within muscles in the course of …

This paper is about (self-powered) advanced hand prosthetics and their control via surface
electromyography (sEMG). We hereby introduce to the biorobotics community the first …
