Semi-Automated Control System for Reaching Movements in EMG Shoulder Disarticulation Prosthesis Based on Mixed Reality Device.

ABSTRACT: Goal: The development of a control system for an electromyographic shoulder disarticulation (EMG-SD) prosthesis to rapidly achieve a task with a reduction in the operational failure of the user. Methods: The motion planning of an EMG-SD prosthesis was automated using measured visual information through a mixed reality device. The detection of an object to be grasped and motion execution depended on the EMG of the user, which gives voluntary controllability and makes the system semi-automated. Two evaluation experiments with reaching and reach-to-grasp movements were conducted to compare the performance of the conventional system when operated using only visual feedback control of the user. Results: The proposed system can more rapidly and accurately achieve reaching mo
