Project Description<\/h2>\n

The goal of this project is to use EEG and EMG signals to control a prosthetic arm. The plan to achieve this goal is to create a database of EEG and EMG signals that correspond to arm and hand movements. Using this database, when a signal is received the arm will move accordingly. The aim is to make the prosthesis motions as smooth and user friendly as possible.<\/p>\n

Deliverables<\/h2>\n

There are four deliverables for this project as follows.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \u00a0Move the prosthetic arm and hand smoothly.<\/li>\n
  2. Read EEG and EMG signals and find patterns.<\/li>\n
  3. Recognize and process EEG and EMG signals with a microcontroller.<\/li>\n
  4. Use these signals to move the prosthetic arm and hand.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Milestones<\/h2>\n

    Each deliverable can be broken down into two or three milestones as follows.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Move the prosthetic arm and hand smoothly.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        \n
      • Have the arm and hand do basic gestures.<\/li>\n
      • Have the arm and hand do complex gestures.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        2. Read EEG and EMG signals and find patterns.<\/p>\n

          \n
        • Read signals using PowerLab 8\/35 and LabChart 8.<\/li>\n
        • Understand patterns and how to find them.<\/li>\n
        • Map patterns and convert to raw data.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          3. Recognize and process EEG and EMG signals with a microcontroller.<\/p>\n

            \n
          • Build an amplifier circuit.<\/li>\n
          • Create a database with raw data.<\/li>\n
          • Develop algorithms.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            4. Use these signals to move the prosthetic arm and hand.<\/p>\n

              \n
            • Create algorithms to control servos.<\/li>\n
            • Apply corrections. (If needed return to deliverable 2)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
