Abstract

The purpose of this research is to clarify whether the developed electrode can adapt to the Electromyograms (EMG) measurement during walk and run. Healthy eleven adults were participated in our experiment (Age: 21.4±0.8: mean ± S.D.). EMG was recoded from the tibialis anterior muscle. It was measured during walk and run in 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 km/hour speed on treadmill. As the results, integrated EMG values between textile electrodes and Ag/AgCl electrodes were not significantly different, respectively. This result showed that the development electrode is useful for the EMG measurement during walk and run.
