At the German Aerospace Center (DLR) Institute of Robotics and Mechatronics, we are developing a research platform for an assistive robotic system. The platform called EDAN (EMG-controlled Daily Assistant) consists of a robotic manipulator, which is mounted on a power wheelchair. The focus of this research is twofold. On the one hand, we investigate the use of Electromyography (EMG) as a non-invasive interface to provide people with control over assistive systems. On the other hand, we develop m
