| Summary: | The paper discusses the development of the
facial-muscle controlled robotic systems. The main work in
the research is to capture the facial muscle signal activities
and leverage the information to control a small mobile
robot movement. The characteristic of the facial muscle
activities is discussed thoroughly in this paper. The EMG
measurement system is developed to condition the signal
before being fed into the controller of the mobile robot
system. Three channels EMG measurement systems
consisting of a set of instrumentation amplifiers INA128P
and four precision amplifiers OP177 are used to construct
the circuit. The signal captured is amplified by 8,415 factor
and filtered using bandpass filter from 50Hz to 500Hz
frequency range. PIC16F877A starter kit is used to
convert the analog signal into the digital form before the
data is transmitted to the receiver of the mobile robot by
using XBee module upon which it responds accordingly.
The system is interactive and could be an exciting
alternative to relieve boredom of patient doing
rehabilitation exercise post stroke. |
