提出了一种用于脑卒中患者的机器人辅助治疗（被称为EMG游戏）的肌电图（EMG）触发系统。通过监测选定肌肉中的EMG来检测患者试图移动的开始，于是机器人帮助她或他在水平面上执行点对点移动。除了提供定制的机器人辅助治疗外，该系统还可以记录可能有助于更好地了解中风恢复过程的信号。初步实验旨在测试所提出的系统，并深入了解潜在的肌电图触发，机器人辅助治疗的报告。
A system for electromyographic (EMG) triggering of robot-assisted therapy (dubbed the EMG game) for stroke patients is presented. The onset of a patient's attempt to move is detected by monitoring EMG in selected muscles, whereupon the robot assists her or him to perform point-to-point movements in a horizontal plane. Besides delivering customized robot-assisted therapy, the system can record signals that may be useful to better understand the process of recovery from stroke. Preliminary experiments aimed at testing the proposed system and gaining insight into the potential of EMG-triggered, robot-assisted therapy are reported.
