Abstract

This study opens up new opportunities for developers and end users to realize an excellent facility of electromyography technology interfacing with different mechatronic devices. The article provides a brief review of the various ways for controlling different types of devices by using human-machine interface with help of electromyography (EMG) technology. How to register EMG signals from human muscular activity and evaluate the electrical potentials with the help of hardware and control the artificial limbs.
