ABSTRACT:
Excitation of the skeletal musculature of a subject is measured by an electromyogram (EMG), processed and applied to control application to the musculature of electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) signals proportional to the electrical nerve impulses. The invention is useful for re-education and/or amplification of muscular control where motor control has suffered impairment.
