Muscles are
an important organ in the movement of the body's skeleton to carry out sports
activities. Measurement of muscle activity during the exercise process can be
done using electromyography (EMG). This research uses muscle sensor (AT-04-001)
which is integrated with ATMEGA 328 SMD. This project presents a wearable,
real-time muscle strain mapping system using Arduino and IoT technologies. The
system utilizes electromyography (EMG) sensors to detect muscle activity and
strain levels. Data is transmitted wirelessly to a cloud-based platform for
analysis and visualization. Wearable monitoring devices are in demand in recent
times for monitoring daily activities including exercise. Moreover, it is
widely utilizing for preventing injuries of athletes during a practice session
and in few cases, it leads to muscle fatigue. At present, emerging technology
like the internet of things (IoT) and sensors is empowering to monitor and
visualize the physical data from any remote location through internet
connectivity. In this study, an IoT-enabled wearable device is proposing for
monitoring and identifying the muscle fatigue condition using a surface
electromyogram (sEMG) sensor. Normally, the EMG signal is utilized to display
muscle activity. Arduino controller, Wi-Fi module, and EMG sensor are utilized
in developing the wearable device. The Time-frequency domain spectrum technique
is employed for classifying the three muscle fatigue conditions including mean
RMS, mean frequency, etc. A real-time experiment is realized on six different
individuals with developed wearable devices and the average RMS value assists
to determine the average threshold of recorded data.
