🥳 Celebrating the Engineering Paper of April 🥳

📉 Adoption rates for prosthetics remain one of the greatest challenges for researchers today. Discomfort and standardization deter patients from wearing them, and in turn prevent recovery. The working solution? 👉 Making prosthetics unique to each individual to achieve biomimicry and improve user adoption.



“Biologically informed geometry and force distribution improve task performance in agonist/antagonist tendon-driven prosthetic hands.”

Lorena Velásquez & Jeremy D. Brown, PhD



This team from Johns Hopkins developed a user-centered framework called the Human-inspired Actuator Modeling and Reconstruction (HAMR) that generates custom agonist/antagonist tendon-actuated end effectors. Enabling natural object interaction, this system uses each patient’s morphology to integrate human-derived geometry and adaptive force distribution. ⚡

Delsys EMG was used during an individualized threshold calibration process to establish activation levels. A First-In-First-Out finite state machine converts sEMG signals into discrete control states, which then drive proportional motor current commands for tendon actuation, allowing the prosthetic system to respond more intuitively to user intent. 🎯

Altogether, the Tendon Actuated Prosthetic Hand resulted in higher task performance in comparison to the general Bionic Skeletal Hand. 🏆

Research like this moves prosthetics beyond the traditional one-size-fits-all paradigm and toward highly personalized systems that better replicate natural human movement and interaction. 🌱

“EMG could be used as a tool to validate this approach.”

Even in challenging environments like combat sports, EMG can provide valuable insights into performance. 🥋📈

During our Applied Sports Webinar, Dr. Roman Fomin demonstrated how EMG was used to monitor muscle activity during three UFC choke techniques, helping identify exercises that could optimise performance.

Using Delsys wireless EMG, live biofeedback, and amplitude reports, researchers and practitioners can collect accurate data and interpret results live or immediately after training.

🚨 An important question every wearable robotics researcher faces…🚨

What does it take to translate wearable robotics from the lab to real-world applications?

Assistive device research makes an impact when results are seen in the real world, not just in the lab or on a treadmill. So, what helps us get there? 🤔

This topic was explored by Dr. Meghan Huber from UMass Amherst in our recent Delsys engineering webinar, “EMG Insights in Wearable Robotics.”

One key takeaway stood out:

➡️ Lab-grade measurement rigor is essential. ⬅️

The lab cannot fully capture what happens when surface conditions change,
fatigue sets in, or real-world ergonomics come into play. That’s why the same measurements used to evaluate performance in the lab must also function reliably in real-world environments. 🚶‍♂️🌳

By integrating Delsys wireless EMG sensors into her wearable robotics system, Dr. Huber was able to capture lab-quality muscle activity in real-world environments and better understand why users adapt differently.

Because success isn’t just about proving a device works.

It’s about understanding how people use it when the lab is no longer part of the equation. 🧮

Delsys & Xsens Hands on Workshop Featuring Dr. Oluwarotimi Samuel (Ph.D) Samuel

We are pleased to feature Oluwarotimi Samuel (University of Derby) as part of the upcoming Delsys & Xsens Hands on Workshop in Bristol, UK.

The workshop, “Towards Robust Multi-DOF Motor Task Characterisation: Adaptive EMG-Based Descriptors for Real-Time Myoelectric Control,” will present recent advances in EMG-driven motor task decoding, focusing on improving robustness and cross-user performance in real-world settings 🦾

The session will include a hands-on demonstration of an improved myoelectric pattern recognition approach for upper-limb gesture characterisation, highlighting how adaptive EMG-based methods can support reliable and intuitive human-machine interaction ⚡

From signal acquisition to real-time decoding, this workshop reflects ongoing progress toward deployable, human-centred neurotechnology systems.

🦾The Power of Predictive Modeling in Wearable Robotics 🦾

In our recent Delsys Engineering webinar, “EMG Insights in Wearable Robotics,” Dr. Vineet Vashista from IIT Gandhinagar highlighted the benefits of predictive musculoskeletal modeling for understanding the effects of muscle assistance. 📊

Predictive modeling enables efficient, targeted development of wearable robotics, helping researchers save both time and resources in a field where they are extremely valuable.

Musculoskeletal modeling can answer key questions in specific task scenarios, such as:
➡️ Which muscles should be assisted?
➡️ Which muscles are overworked or fatigued?
➡️ Can an exosuit provide effective support here?

Musculoskeletal modeling acts as a guiding light, showing the way before you enter unknown territory. With high-fidelity EMG data, predictive modeling insights are right at your fingertips. 🤏

Go beyond muscle activity and let EMG reveal more 🫡
