Abstract

We aim to estimate angle of finger during flexion and extension. Each finger joint angle is estimated by hybrid method. Moreover, it is verified the method is effectivity. The hybrid method is one of the method to identify finger motions by SVM and to estimate joint angle. In this research, an environment has been developed to be operate myoelectric prosthesis by myoelectric. Moreover, 5 finger motions have been identified by SVM, and it is estimated each finger joint angle of motion 1 with a high accuracy by the hybrid method. The myoelectric prosthesis has been operated based on these results, and it is affirmed the myoelectric prosthesis has been follow the operater. Therefore, the hybrid method is a usable way to estimate 5 finger joint angle. In the future, identification of finger motions will be increased accuracy, and finger angle of 2 motions will be estimated.
