WEARABLE DEVICES AND ASSOCIATED BAND STRUCTURES FOR SENSING NEUROMUSCULAR SIGNALS AND IDENTIFYING HAND GESTURES AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF

Fuente: Wipo "Sensorization"
A wearable apparatus for gesture control is disclosed. The wearable apparatus includes one or more first sensors configured to contact skin on a wrist of a user when the wearable apparatus is worn by the user. The one or more first sensors are configured to generate first signals associated with muscle activity of the user. The wearable apparatus further includes an inertial sensor configured to generate second signals associated with a motion of the user. The wearable apparatus further includes one or more processors configured to receive the first signals generated by the one or more first sensors and receive the second signals generated by the inertial sensor. The one or more processors are further configured to determine a gesture of the user based at least in part on an analysis of the first signals and the second signals, and perform an action associated with the gesture.
