: The "artificial muscles" (typically motors or pneumatic systems) that produce the physical force or motion. Major Application Areas
: Acts as the "brain," interpreting sensor data and translating it into movement commands while providing feedback to the user. Introduction to Biomechatronics
While often associated with limb replacement, biomechatronics spans a wide range of human-machine integration: Introduction to Biomechatronics | IET Digital Library : The "artificial muscles" (typically motors or pneumatic
Modern biomechatronic devices operate as closed-loop systems that mimic natural biological processes: and limb position (e.g.
: Detect the user's intentions by picking up electrical signals from muscles (EMG) or nerves.
: Measure external variables like force, load, and limb position (e.g., accelerometers and force meters).
