Abstract
Electromyogram (EMG) signals are produced by the human body and are used in prosthetic design due to its significant functionality with human biomechanics. Engineers are capable of developing a variety of prosthetic limbs with the advancement of technology in the domain of biomedical signal processing, as limb amputees can restore their lives with the help of prosthetic limbs. This current review paper looks at the signals that are used to monitor the device, explaining the various steps and techniques involved (such as data acquisition, feature vector conversion after noise, and redundant data removal) and reviewing previously developed electromyogram-based prosthetic controls. Furthermore, this research also focuses on a variety of electromyogram controlled applications.
期刊介绍:
In recent years a breakthrough has occurred in our understanding of the molecular pathomechanisms of human diseases whereby most of our diseases are related to intra and intercellular communication disorders. The concept of signal transduction therapy has got into the front line of modern drug research, and a multidisciplinary approach is being used to identify and treat signaling disorders.
The journal publishes timely in-depth reviews, research article and drug clinical trial studies in the field of signal transduction therapy. Thematic issues are also published to cover selected areas of signal transduction therapy. Coverage of the field includes genomics, proteomics, medicinal chemistry and the relevant diseases involved in signaling e.g. cancer, neurodegenerative and inflammatory diseases. Current Signal Transduction Therapy is an essential journal for all involved in drug design and discovery.
