Use of artificial intelligence and neural networks for analysis and gesture detection in electrical impedance tomography

Abstract

Artificial intelligence and neural networks are getting more and more relevant for several types of application. The field of prosthesis technology currently uses electromyography for controllable prosthesis. The precision of the control suffers from the use of EMG. More precise and more collected data with the help of EIT allows a much more precise analysis and control of the prosthesis. In this paper a neural network for gesture detection using EIT is developed and presented in a user-friendly way.
