Abstract: | Ensemble averaging after pre-editing of surface EMG potentials has enabled construction of underlying controller signals from stereotyped head movements. Carefully controlled, intended time-optimal movements by trained, actively participating human subjects have been found to yield repeatable, multi-pulse controller signals. Also, adaptive changes in these horizontal head movements in response to added viscous loads showed further causal relationships between movement dynamics and EMG signals from left and right splenius muscles. These experimental results are a base from which modeling studies can be performed to explicate the neurological control strategies used in the performance of this class of movements. |
