- Additional information
- This work presents a novel, low-cost, electrodeless sensor, based on a FSR to simultaneously measure muscle contraction and mechanomyogram. The importance and impact of the research has been recognised in many forms: this paper has been issued the cover story and front page of the journal issue (https://www.mdpi.com/1424-8220/18/8), led to further research in similar/other areas (https://doi.org/10.3389/fnbot.2019.00114, https://doi.org/10.3390/s20143885 https://10.1109/TNSRE.2020.2988585)
followed by a recent invitation to me to become guest editor on the topic. The sensor and its elegant electronic circuitry have been used for muscular activity analysis (https://doi.org/10.3390/s20174775, https://doi.org/10.1109/JSEN.2020.3022899, and more), prosthetic control (https://doi.org/10.3390/s20174883 ) and electronics reviews (https://doi.org/10.3390/s19204557).
