Abstract

Event Abstract Back to Event Mutually Adaptation based on Phantom Sensation using Biofeedback of Functional Electrical Stimulation Hiroshi Yokoi1*, Ryu Kato1, Tatsuhiro Nakamura1, Soichiro Morishita1 and Yoshiko Yabuki1 1 The University of Electro-Communications, Japan This work reports on a biomedical robotic collaborative approach for neuroprosthesis based on body image adjustment. A novel concept of functional recovery of motion based on biofeedback to connect the intentions of motion and the sensory input has attracted considerable attention. This study describes adaptable EMG prosthetic hand experiments that show that the sensory motor cortex indicates the human intentions of motion through synchronized proprioceptive sensor inputs. This illusion induces strange activities in the sensory motor area according to the synchronous biofeedback of interference-driven electrical stimulation. The proposed device can be applied for the rehabilitation of paralysis due to stroke; it has functions for changing the stimulation parameters and controlling many channels in order to adapt to various types of paralysis and to support complex movements such as grasping, standing, and walking. Furthermore the new multiple motion assistive system is developed that many electric stimulation electrodes are assigned as programmable relay circuit connected array the surface of skin. The programmable relay circuit realizes all possible couples of electrodes and group of electrodes. This new system realizes many motions of hand and leg without replacement of electrodes.
