Delsys EMG workshop @ Hartpury College, UK
Prof. Jim Richards, University of Central Lancashire, U.K.
Note: This workshop is free for all attendees. Registration is required.
Surface EMG in Human and Equine Biomechanics
This workshop will cover the nature of sEMG signals, the information contained in both the magnitude and frequency domains and the different methods of collecting sEMG. There will be a particular focus on processing techniques and extraction of information from sEMG, with relevance to muscle performance and endurance. This workshop will include hands on experience of the method and measurement techniques commonly used to assess muscle function. The complications and confounding factors that we have to deal with on a day to day basis when using sEMG shall also be discussed and explored.
Finally the latest developments in EMG analysis will be discussed.
Demo
A live demonstration of data collection tools will be given, showing how real-time data display and processing can be used to optimize the quality of sEMG data collection. Novel technology for suppressing the movement artifact and reducing cross-talk detected during dynamic activities will be demonstrated, flexible data analysis tools will be used to view and process physiological data, demonstrating the ease with which research questions can be explored, and trends and nuances related to physiological states can be evaluated.
