ABSTRACT
These days, smart watches have drawn more attention of users, and many smart watch products have been launched (Samsung Gear series, apple watch and etc.). Since a smart watch is put on the wrist, the device should be small and unobtrusive. Because of these features, display of the smart watch is small and there is a limitation to interaction. To overcome the limitation, many studies are conducted. In this paper, we propose a two-hand interaction technique that obtains posture information of a hand using electromyography (EMG) sensor attached to the arm and to make input interaction to a smart watch different depending on each posture. EMG sensors recognize information about a user's hand posture, and the non-dominant hand is used for smart watch inputs. In this way, different function is executed depending on postures. As a result, a smart watch that has limited input methods is given a variety of interaction functions with users.

Same-side Hand Interactions with Arm-placed Devices Using EMG
CHI EA '15: Proceedings of the 33rd Annual ACM Conference Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsWe present a preliminary evaluation of an approach utilizing eyes-free, same-side hand interactions with arm-placed devices based on electromyography (EMG). We hypothesize that the approach is well-suited for situations that do not allow for opposite-...
An IMU and EMG-Based Simultaneous and Proportional Control Strategy of 3-DOF Wrist and Hand Movements
Intelligent Robotics and ApplicationsAbstractMultiple degrees-of-freedom (DOFs) simultaneous and proportional control (SPC) is the trend of the electromyography (EMG)-driven human-machine interfaces. Recent studies demonstrated the capability of the musculoskeletal model in SPC. However, the ...
A new hand finger movements’ classification system based on bicoherence analysis of two-channel surface EMG signals
AbstractIn this study, two-channel surface electromyography (sEMG) signals were used to classify hand finger movements. Bicoherence analysis of the sEMG signal recorded with surface electrodes for flexor and extensor muscle bundles on the front and back ...
