我们的实验室正在开发肌电图驱动的虚拟手臂，用于研究手臂运动的神经肌肉控制。虚拟手臂包含横跨肘关节的主要肌肉，并用于根据记录的肌电图（emg）估计单个肌肉产生的张力。它能够估计关节力矩和相应的虚拟运动，并在计算机屏幕上实时显示。此外，虚拟手臂提供了对各种生理和环境条件的人工控制。虚拟手臂可以用来检查神经肌肉系统如何补偿部分或全部失去的肌肉产生力量的能力，这可能是由于创伤或病理。本文的目的是描述我们的实时，肌电驱动的虚拟手臂的设计目标，基本组件和实现。(C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.版权所有。
An EMG-driven virtual arm is being developed in our laboratories for the purposes of studying neuromuscular control of arm movements. The virtual arm incorporates the major muscles spanning the elbow joint and is used to estimate tension developed by individual muscles based on recorded electromyograms (EMGs). It is able to estimate joint moments and the corresponding virtual movements, which are displayed in real-time on a computer screen. In addition, the virtual arm offers artificial control over a variety of physiological and environmental conditions. The virtual arm can be used to examine how the neuromuscular system compensates for the partial or total loss of a muscle's ability to generate force as might result from trauma or pathology. The purpose of this paper is to describe the design objectives, fundamental components and implementation of our real-time, EMG-driven virtual arm. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
