Abstract

Electromyogram technology captures gestures as input for neuroelectric joysticks and keyboards and thus could lead to new applications in flight control, space, and the video game industry. The authors describe how they used electrodes to capture the gestures, processed EMG signals from the muscles performing these gestures, and trained hidden Markov models to create systems used to successfully fly simulated aircraft to landings and recognize virtual keystrokes.
