Abstract: This project presents the development of an EMG-controlled lower limb exoskeleton designed to aid individuals with hemiplegia in regaining mobility and enhancing rehabilitation outcomes. Utilizing an Arduino microcontroller, EMG sensors, and a DC motor, the exoskeleton responds to muscle signals, enabling intuitive control that mimics natural leg movement. An accelerometer sensor is incorporated for gesture recognition and fall detection, providing an added layer of safety by monitoring unintended movements and potential falls.
Keywords: EMG-sensors, Arduino UNO, H-Bridge, Hemiplegia.
