Captura de biofeedback para controle de servomotor

Abstract

Biofeedback is a technique related to Behavioral Medicine that emerged in the twentieth century, its method is to monitor various voluntary and involuntary human body functions. One way to get these body responses is Electromyography, which especially monitors muscle activities. Combining these methods, these technologies can improve human life quality. Concepts of bionic prostheses for people who have no limbs or lost in an accident can be constructed from the capture of biofeedback with electromyography. The construction of bionic prostheses is already at a developmental level where the capacity for replacement of missing limbs in humans already exists. The main theme of this paper is to demonstrate principles of prosthetic control using biofeedback, and their beneficial contribution today. We will build a study of a circuit with low cost devices able to control a servomotor by capturing the electrical activity of some specific muscle group.
