Hand motion recognition based on forearm deformation measured with a distance sensor array.
Studies of upper limb motion analysis using surface electromyogram (sEMG) signals measured from the forearm plays an important role in various applications, such as human interfaces for controlling robotic exoskeletons, prosthetic hands, and evaluation of body functions. Though the sEMG signals have a lot of information about the activities of the muscles, the signals do not have the activities of the deep layer muscles. We focused on forearm deformation, since hand motion brings the muscles, tendons, and skeletons under the skin. The reason why we focus is that we believe the forearm deformation delivers information about the activities of deep layer muscles. In this paper, we propose a hand motion recognition method based on the forearm deformation measured with a distance sensor array. The method uses the support vector machine. Our method achieved a mean accuracy of 92.6% for seven hand motions. Because the accuracy of the pronation and the supination are high, the distance sensor array has the potential to estimate the activities of deep layer muscles.
