Myoelectric Pattern Recognition Based on Muscle Synergies for Simultaneous Control of Dexterous Finger Movements

Motor activities during daily life always involve simultaneous control of multiple degrees of freedom (DOFs), which has not yet been fully explored in myoelectric control due to difficulty in sufficiently decoding the complex neural control information. This study presents a novel framework for simultaneous myoelectric control based on pattern recognition incorporated with a muscle synergy motor control strategy for each DOF. An experiment for...
