Identifying User Suitability in sEMG Based Hand Prosthesis Using Neural Networks

Conclusion: In this paper a study was conducted to identify user suitability for designing hand prosthesis. Data were collected from ten subjects for twelve tasks related to finger movements. The suitability of the user was identified using two neural networks with six parametric features. From the result, it was concluded thatfit women doing regular physical exercises aged between 26-30 years are best suitable for developing HMI for designing a prosthetic hand. Pattern Recognition Neural Network with AR Burg extraction features using extension movements will be a better way to design the HMI. However, Signal acquisition based on wireless method is worth considering for the future.
