Volitional Control Of Lower-Limb Prosthesis With Vision-Assisted Environmental Awareness, S M Shafiul Hasan Mar 2022

Volitional Control Of Lower-Limb Prosthesis With Vision-Assisted Environmental Awareness, S M Shafiul Hasan

FIU Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Early and reliable prediction of user’s intention to change locomotion mode or speed is critical for a smooth and natural lower limb prosthesis. Meanwhile, incorporation of explicit environmental feedback can facilitate context aware intelligent prosthesis which allows seamless operation in a variety of gait demands. This dissertation introduces environmental awareness through computer vision and enables early and accurate prediction of intention to start, stop or change speeds while walking. Electromyography (EMG), Electroencephalography (EEG), Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), and Ground Reaction Force (GRF) sensors were used to predict intention to start, stop or increase walking speed. Furthermore, it was investigated whether …


Review Of Emg-Based Speech Recognition, Amean Al_Safi, Liqaa Alhafadhi May 2015

Review Of Emg-Based Speech Recognition, Amean Al_Safi, Liqaa Alhafadhi

Amean S Al_Safi

This study represents a review of the main studies in EMG-based speech recognition. Its main goal is to support the researchers in the biomedical field with a survey of the solved and unsolved problem in the direction since it has received a great attention during last decade due to its promise applications such as underwater communication and silent speech recognition. Hence this study is a very good starting point for the researchers interested in this area of research
