Patent ID: 10285616

Abstract:
Provided is a myoelectric potential measurement device that recognizes a user arm movement, including a bracelet having a plurality of electrodes, at least one memory, and a processor. The processor: uses the bracelet having the plurality of electrodes, which come into contact with the arm of the user, to measure a myoelectric potential at each of the plurality of electrodes; detects a measurement state when the each myoelectric potential is being measured; specifies at least one preferred electrode, which has a portion of the arm of the user positioned vertically thereunder, from among the plurality of electrodes in accordance with the measurement state, and weights the each myoelectric potential measured by the specified at least one preferred electrode, with respect to the each myoelectric potential measured by electrodes other than the preferred electrode from among the plurality of electrodes; and uses the weighted myoelectric potential to recognize the movement of the user, and outputs a recognition result.
