  • Magnetomicrometric Advances in Robotic Control
    Publication number: 20230390087
    Abstract: Systems and methods relating to magnetomicrometry and magnetic-target-based mechanomyography are provided. A method of detecting muscle activation, includes with a magnetic field sensor, detecting lateral vibration of a target implanted at a muscle or a tendon and estimating a level of muscle activation based on the detected lateral vibration. The target comprises a magnetic material.
