Muscle fatigue due to long-term of manual wheelchair propulsion is an issue faced by most of users. A power-assisted wheelchair developed to amplify propulsion force that activated by surface electromyography (sEMG). A sEMG detection wireless device to trigger the assistive system is an advantage to...
