  3. Prosthetic hand (NTU-Hand) National Taiwan University (NTU), Dept. of ME, Robotic Lab http://robot0.me.ntu.edu.tw/english/E_Researches/medical/medical_res.htm http://robot0.me.ntu.edu.tw/english/E_Researches/medical/prosthesis.htm • Developed by Dr. Li-ren Lin and Ji-Da Wu • A modular robotic hand • The degrees of freedom of the hand range from five to eleven • The weight of the NTU-Hand II - 1300 g

  4. EMG signal processing http://robot0.me.ntu.edu.tw/english/E_Researches/medical/EMG.htm The EMG controller uses two pairs surface electrodes to acquire the EMG signal from the flexor digitorum superficialis muscle and the extensor pollicis brevis muscle. Eight types of hand movements (Three-jaw chuck, lateral hand, hook grasp, power grasp, cylindrical grasp, centralized grip, flattened hand and finger flexion)

  5. Used parameters: variance, zero-crossings, autoregressive model and spectral estimation. The control method combined the pattern recognition technique and a pulse-coding analysis. An error backpropagation neural network and a k-nearest-neighbor rule are applied to discriminate among the feature sets. Experiments: PC + digital signal processor (DSP) 3-D graphic interface program.

  8. Three sensors inside the sleeve pick up natural motions of tendons and transmit them to a desktop computer which then control the fingers of the hand. lack of fingers • Tendon Activated Pneumatic (TAP) control. • Based on sensing the command signals in the forearm by pressure sensors that are located in the limb socket. • The system detect specific finger movement requests and send them directly to small actuators that move fingers. • Biomimetic approach – the natural motor control system is used to activate the fingers (minimal learning time). • the TAP system is not appropriate for everyone. • tested on 12 people, 9 of whom were able to use it successfully. • several operable fingers with controlled grasping force.

  10. "A Microprocessor-Based Multifunction Myoelectric Control System"by Kevin Englehart, Bernard Hudgins, Philip Parker and Robert N. Scott, Institute of Biomedical Engineering, University of New Brunswick.  23rd Canadian Medical and Biological Engineering Society Conference "A Microprocessor-Based Multifunction Myoelectric Control System“, Toronto, Canada, May 1997

  11. "A Microprocessor-Based Multifunction Myoelectric Control • The control scheme uses the myoelectric signals produced in the first two hundred milliseconds following a contraction in the muscles.  • This information is used to train a pattern classifier to recognize the specific pattern unique to the amputee, and to determine the intent of the amputee.  • The pattern classifier matches the pattern to select the device that is controlled, such as the hand, elbow, or wrist.  • Once a pattern is recognized, the actuator is activated until the input myoelectric signal goes below a certain threshold.

  12. The controller operates in two modes: • a training mode • a normal mode. The training mode or PC interface mode involves the use of a host PC for offline processing. • Steps of the training mode: • Specify myoelectric control parameters. • Collect the MES for the user. • Extract certain features from the MES, and store them for training the artificial neural network. • Train the pattern classifier to recognize the input MES. This requires a host computer for off-line processing. • Train the artificial neural network to obtain the weights. These weights are used to determine a match. • Store these weights in the device in non-volatile RAM. The PC interface mode allows the control of a prosthesis by controlling a three-dimensional "virtual arm" on the host PC.

  13. The normal mode: • MES is collected both from the biceps and from the triceps. • Extraction of features from the signals • Artificial neural network whose weightings were previously determined in the offline mode to identify the closest pattern match to drive the correct device. • The system have to be fast enough to respond within 300 milliseconds. A system response longer than this would cause the user would become frustrated, and to try other motions. • This response time is limiting because the system requires approximately 250 milliseconds to capture enough data in the MES for accurate pattern recognition. This leaves only 50 milliseconds for the processing and activation of the prosthetic device. • Even with these limitations, the current system has an over 90% accuracy in determining four types of prosthetic device motions. The current prototype has an approximate size of 1.5" x 2.5" x 0.5" and operates on a 6V NiCad battery.

  14. Multifunctional prosthetic control using the myoelectric power spectral density spectrum Dr. Philip Parker, Jillian Mallory The University of New Brunswick, Canada. The system inputs the myoelectric signal, x(n), at a sampling frequency F, then extracts a feature vector of length N.

  15. Multifunctional prosthetic control using the myoelectric power spectral density spectrum The system inputs the myoelectric signal, x(n), at a sampling frequency F, then extracts a feature vector of length N. The myoelectric signal power spectral density spectrum changes with variations in muscle contraction patterns. The design and the implementation of a control input to a myoelectric control system can be based on the classification of these power spectrum patterns. A feature vector corresponding to the changes in spectrum is extracted by the segmentation of the spectrum. This vector is classified using a pattern classifier and its output is used for the prosthesis control.

  16. Prosthetic Control by an EEG-based Brain-Computer Interface Prosthetic Control by an EEG-based Brain-Computer Interface (BCI), Christoph Guger, Werner Harkam, Carin Hertnaes, Gert Pfurtscheller, Uniniversity of Technology Graz, AAATE99 http://www.fernuni-hagen.de/FTB/aaate99/paper/99_90/99_90.htm • It was shown recently that hand movement imagery results in EEG signals close to primary motor areas. An array of electrodes overlying motor and somatosensory areas (electrode positions C3 and C4). • Oscillatory EEG components are used for BCI • On-line analysis of EEG signals is required.

  17. Test • Fixation cross was shown in the center of a monitor. • After two seconds a warning "beep" stimulus • From second 3 until 4.25 an arrow (cue stimulus), pointing to the left or right, was shown on the screen. The subject was instructed to imagine a left or right hand movement, depending on the direction of the arrow. • Between second 4.25 and 8 the EEG was classified on-line and the classification result was used to control the prosthesis. If the person imagined a left movement, then the prosthesis was closed a little bit more and vice versa (correct classification assumed). One session consisted of 160 trials. Three sessions were made with subject i6.
