Hand function rehabilitation training typically requires monitoring the activation status of muscles directly related to hand function. However, due to factors such as the small surface area for hand-back electrode placement and significant skin deformation, the continuous real-time monitoring of high-quality surface electromyographic (sEMG) signals on the hand-back skin still poses significant challenges. We report a stretchable, flexible, breathable, and self-adhesive epidermal sEMG sensor system. The optimized serpentine structure exhibits a sufficient stretchability and filling ratio, enabling the high-quality monitoring of signals. The carving design minimizes the distribution of connecting wires, providing more space for electrode reservation. The low-cost fabrication design, combined with the cauterization design, facilitates large-scale production. Integrated with customized wireless data acquisition hardware, it demonstrates the real-time multi-channel sEMG monitoring capability for muscle activation during hand function rehabilitation actions. The sensor provides a new tool for monitoring hand function rehabilitation treatments, assessing rehabilitation outcomes, and researching areas such as prosthetic control. |
