Detection of movement onset using EMG signals for upper-limb exoskeletons in reaching tasks

Abstract Background To assist people with disabilities, exoskeletons must be provided with human-robot interfaces and smart algorithms capable to identify the user’s movement intentions. Surface electromyographic (sEMG) signals could be suitable for this purpose, but their applicability in shared co...
