title = "Determination of stimulation timing pattern based on EMG signals for fes cycling with pedaling wheelchair",
abstract = "A simple functional electrical stimulation (FES) cycling control with the pedaling wheelchair was developed in our previous study. However, it needed measurement of muscle response time of each stimulated muscle before cycling. In addition, cycling speed varied between subjects and between trials. In this study, stimulation timing pattern was determined based on EMG signals and tested in FES cycling for the pedaling wheelchair with healthy subjects. The EMG-based stimulation timing, in which stimulation start timing for the rectus femoris was modified to be the same as the vastus lateralis, was shown to be effective improving cycling speed and stability of FES cycling. The timing pattern could be practical because it does not require measurements of muscle response times.",
