Recording Functioning Muscles to Rehab Spinal Cord Injury Patients

They devised a system that records and interprets muscle signals from the physiotherapist and then stimulates specific muscles, in the patient, via an electro-stimulator. The acquisition system is based on a BITalino board that records the Surface Electromyography signal from the muscles of the physiotherapist, while they perform a specific exercise designed for the patient’s rehabilitation plan.
