摘要
In order to help the patients with upper-limb disfunction go on rehabilitation training, this paper proposed an upper-limb exoskeleton rehabilitation robot with four degrees of freedom (DOF), and realized two control schemes, i.e., voice control and electromyography control. The hardware and software design of the voice control system was completed based on RSC-4128 chips, which realized the speech recognition technology of a specific person. Besides, this study adapted self-made surface eletromyogram (sEMG) signal extraction electrodes to collect sEMG signals and realized pattern recognition by conducting sEMG signals processing, extracting time domain features and fixed threshold algorithm. In addition, the pulse-width modulation(PWM)algorithm was used to realize the speed adjustment of the system. Voice control and electromyography control experiments were then carried out, and the results showed that the mean recognition rate of the voice control and electromyography control reached 93.1% and 90.9%, respectively. The results proved the feasibility of the control system. This study is expected to lay a theoretical foundation for the further improvement of the control system of the upper-limb rehabilitation robot. � 2016, Editorial Office of Journal of Biomedical Engineering.
