Abstract

Electromyography (EMG) signal analysis is one of the key determinants of the effectiveness of prosthetic devices. Modern researchers provide various methods of detection of different hand movements and postures. In this work, we examined the possibility to produce efficient detection of hand movement to a specific posture with the minimum possible number of electrodes. The data acquisition is produced with 1 channel BiTalino EMG sensor based on bipolar differential measurement. Using feature extraction and artificial neural network we achieved 82% of offline classification accuracy for 8 hand motions and 91% accuracy for 6 hand motions based on 200 ms of EMG signal. Also, the motion detection algorithm was developed and successfully tested that allowed to implement the algorithm for real-time classification and that showed sufficient accuracy for 2 and 4 motion classes cases.
