Study on a Novel Wearable Exoskeleton Hand Function Training System Based on EMG Triggering

摘要

In order to improve the rehabilitation initiative of stroke patients with hand dysfunction, this paper proposes a novel wearable exoskeleton hand function training system based on myoelectric (EMG) triggering. EMG control system is designed and the exoskeleton hand function training device is modeled and tested to verify the motion capabilities. The experiment results show that subject can complete prehension and looseness independently. The maximum flexion degrees of fingers are in agreement with the theoretical values. The feasibility of the wearable exoskeleton hand function training system is validated.
