Abstract :
Recently, researches of artificial arms and pointing devices using electromyogram (EMG) have been actively done. However, EMG is usually measured from a part with comparatively big muscular fibers such as arms and shoulders. Therefore, if we can recognize wrist motions using EMG which was measured from the wrist, the range of application will extend furthermore. Moreover, it is predicted that convenience in putting on and taking off the electrode improves. Therefore, we focus on EMG measured from the wrist. In this paper, we aim the construction of wrist EMG recognition system by using fast statistical method and neural network.
