What is it about?

This work represents control method of the elbow exercise device for elderly people. The control method control the motor current of the elbow exercise device with respect to the arm condition of the exerciser. The arm condition of the exerciser is determined by EMG signal from the arm, on which an EMG sensor is attached.

Why is it important?

The control method is to control EMG signal from arm to a preset value.

Perspectives

The usefulness of the proposed method is to control EMG signal from arm to a preset value. The proposed method would be used in any situations in which the EMG signal must be maintained (controlled) to a preset value.
