Abstract

In this study, Virtual Prosthetic Hand that controlled by single and dual channel sEMG (surface EMG) signals is presented. Virtual hand is designed by Blender 3D that is a powerful graphic modelling tool. Additionally, processing of raw EMG signal is explained with MATLAB. Python software language which has a large library was used for importing and evaluating of signals and for control algorithms. The Presented virtual hand has a modular structure and can be controlled by single and dual sEMG signals. Virtual hand opens, closes at constant speed and remains its position according to the processing signals.
