Wireless Multi-Channel EMG Monitoring System For Rehabilitation Exercise Assistance
Rehabilitation exercises are essential for restoring motor function following fractures, ligament injuries, and nerve damage. However, performing these exercises correctly without professional supervision can be difficult, and improper execution may slow recovery or even cause secondary injuries. Surface electromyography (sEMG), which detects electrical signals generated by muscle contractions through the skin, offers a valuable measure of muscle activation. In this study, we propose a wireless sEMG monitoring system to support the correct execution of rehabilitation exercises. This system monitors muscle engagement to ensure appropriate activation levels, aligned with the therapeutic goals of each exercise. By developing this muscle monitoring device, we aim to enhance the effectiveness of rehabilitation and assist patients in recovering motor function by helping them perform prescribed exercises accurately.
