We were thrilled to have the opportunity to speak with Jonathan Hagyard at Delsys, Inc, who "gets" what it is we're trying to do with this project: delsyseurope.com/libemg-an-o…
If you're using, or thinking of using #LibEMG (lnkd.in/ggPCwBjt) please let us know!
@UNB_IBME
💻 LibEMG - An open-source Python toolbox for working with myoelectric control 🦾
It's not every day you come across a truly remarkable, shared, and open-source toolbox...this project has got me really excited!!
Read the thread to find out more 👇🧵

I recently had the opportunity to visit the historical Lund University (est. 1666) in Sweden as the Opponent for a PhD Examination. What wonderful people, place, and culture. Congratulations, Dr. Alexander Olsson and supervisors, Christian Antfolk & Nebojsa Nebojša Malešević.
Did you know that the way you walk is as unique as your fingerprint?
The @UNB_IBME at @UNBFredericton, is currently recruiting participants for a study on gait biometrics using video and pressure-sensitive flooring.

(1 of 2) Did you know that women with dense breast tissue are 4-5 times more likely to develop breast cancer than women with non-dense breast tissue? Worse, dense tissue confounds the performance of current mammography approaches.
(2 of 2) In our recent preliminary study with Dr. Farah Naz using Breathe Biomedical's breath analytics technology, we were able to detect early-stage breast cancer with 88.2% accuracy in women with high dense breast tissue. lnkd.in/eNX-a389

Congrats and good luck, Alex Roberts and Sarah Díaz on #eNableAnalytics being finalists for the Arthritis Ideator Awards! It's a pleasure working with you. You've got this.

Interesting... wrist EMG keeps outperforming forearm EMG for gesture recognition; this time, with better across-day stability. Our adaptive MIDA (maximum independence domain adaptation) improves the performance of both. 😉 Implications for #wearables?

Wow, @UNB is hopping these days! With announcents in things like AI (blogs.unb.ca/newsroom/2022/1…), and entrepreneurship (blogs.unb.ca/alumni/2022/11/…), and digital health (blogs.unb.ca/newsroom/2022/1…), it's such a great time to be in #ai and #unbmobilityresearch.
@UNB_IBME @UNBEngineering
Always great to have you, and to learn about the latest and greatest from @delsysinc!
Stopped into the @UNB_IBME while in Fredericton for the @csep_scpe Conference - it was great to show @escheme and @kengleha some of the exciting #MotorUnit and HD #EMG sensors we have @delsysinc , and to see a demo of your gesture recognition tools using Trigno Avanti Sensors!

Some much awaited news ... "NHS England ... have concluded that there is enough evidence to make the myoelectric control multi-grip prosthetic available and insufficient evidence to support non-myoelectric control multi-grip prosthetics at this time. " england.nhs.uk/publication/c…
What a great demonstration of #ai integration from one of my former MSc students. It would appear, the student has become the master. Keep up the great work, James Cameron! @UNB_IBME
