Abstract/Summary
Quantifying human arm muscle activity is essential for understanding human movements and helping individuals who suffer from motor or neurological impairments such as stroke or traumatic brain injuries. Today, these individuals, as well as clinicians, researchers, and athletes, face many challenges when using the traditional surface electromyography (sEMG) systems to monitor muscle activities, including complex setup, restricted mobility, discomfort, inconsistent placement of electrodes, and lack of accuracy. Therefore, a comfortable EMG sleeve device that accurately measures arm movement without interfering with daily tasks is needed, which the team will be designing, manufacturing, and testing as their senior project. In addition, our EMG sleeve will be designed to fit arms of various sizes and shapes. This project will be carried out by a team of mechanical engineering students at California Polytechnic University - San Luis Obispo, including Bright Jung, Evan Abalos, Owen Bowling, and Wyatt Eberhart.
