Abstract

Through experience, the techniques used by professional vocalists become highly ingrained and much of the fine muscular control needed for healthy singing is executed using well-refined mental imagery. In this paper, we provide a method for observing intention and embodied practice using surface electromyography (sEMG) to detect muscular activation, in particular with the laryngeal muscles. Through sensing the electrical neural impulses causing muscular contraction, sEMG provides a unique measurement of user intention, where other sensors reflect the results of movement. In this way, we are able to measure movement in preparation, vocalised singing, and in the use of imagery during mental rehearsal where no sound is produced. We present a circuit developed for use with the low voltage activations of the laryngeal muscles; in sonification of these activations, we further provide feedback for vocalists to investigate and experiment with their own intuitive movements and intentions for creative vocal practice.

Continuous grip force estimation from surface electromyography using generalized regression neural network
BACKGROUND:
Grip force estimation is highly required in realizing flexible and accurate prosthetic control.
OBJECTIVE:
This study presents a method to accurately estimate continuous grip force from surface electromyography (sEMG) under three forearm ...
Evaluating performance of the lunge exercise with multiple and individual inertial measurement units
PervasiveHealth '16: Proceedings of the 10th EAI International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare

The lunge is an important component of lower limb rehabilitation, strengthening and injury risk screening. Completing the movement incorrectly alters muscle activation and increases stress on knee, hip and ankle joints. This study sought to investigate ...
Comparing of Electromyography and Ultrasound for Estimation of Joint Angle and Torque
Intelligent Robotics and Applications
Abstract
Electromyography (EMG) signals and ultrasound sensing have been widely studied to estimate movement intentions in the human-machine interface (HMI) field. In this study, we compared the EMG and ultrasound for estimation of the positions and torque ...
