Description
Summary:With the rapid advancement in robotics technology and artificial intelligence, there is an increasing number of smart assistive robots that can adapt and react to the user’s needs based on specific interactions. There are several proposed control methods that aim to control the robot according to its user’s intentions by capturing the kinematics and physiological signals from the muscle. This paper aims to present a design for a portable embedded system that can serve as an interface for Human-Robot Interaction. The proposed system will implement methods of capturing the physiological signals, specifically using the electromyogram signal (EMG) and mechanomyogram signal (MMG), to interpret the user’s intention for motion. The designed system’s effectiveness will be determined by its ability to accurately measure the input signals.
