Comparison between sEMG and force as control interfaces to support planar arm movements in adults with Duchenne: a feasibility study

Comparison between sEMG and force as control interfaces to support planar arm movements in adults with Duchenne: a feasibility study

Abstract Background Adults with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) can benefit from devices that actively support their arm function. A critical component of such devices is the control interface as it is responsible for the human-machine interaction. Our previous work indicated that surface electrom...
