Abstract
In this paper, we propose algorithms of design for a motion path that is capable of strengthening specific muscles. By using the proposed algorithm, it is possible to design a motion path maximizing the activity of an agonist muscle and minimizing the activity of other muscles. EMG signal is measured during a trainig experiment and the degree of muscular revitalization is evaluated by the amplitude of EMG signal. Finally, the effectiveness of proposed approach is demonstrated through experiments.
