[Research and development of the surface EMG detection and analysis system].

To meet the requirement of developing myoelectric controller for a man-machine systems, a surface electromyography (EMG) detection and analysis system is discussed in this paper. This system consists of two parts--data acquisition hardware and signal processing software. In the surface EMG acquisition system both wire and wireless TELEMG are available. In the surface EMG processing system various methods are integrated such as the methods in time domain, the methods for frequency analysis, and also including some newly developed methods, e.g., wavelet transform and fractal analysis. This system provides a useful platform for research and development of the myoelectric controller that is widely used in rehabilitation engineering products.
