Abstract

In this paper fuzzy type-1 and type-2 models for control of bionic hand in real-time are proposed. The control process involves interpretation and analysis of surface electromyography signal (sEMG) acquired from patients with amputees. In the provided experiments, we assume the use of force sensing resistor to achieve better control of the bionic hand being modeled. The classical type-1 Mamdani control as well as the extended type-2 fuzzy models are considered for this application. The conducted experiments show comparable results with respect to applied assumptions that give the confidence to implement the proposed concept into real-time control process.
