Abstract: Introduction: Out motivation for this project is to provide mobility to patients with nerve damage which may have resulted from injury or disease. To accomplish the feat of bridging nerve communication and muscle contraction, we turn to functional electric stimulation (FES). Functional electrical stimulation uses low level electrical current to activate the nerves responsible for muscle contraction and has been used to restore or to improve muscle function. However, current systems rely on a constant stimulation and causes muscle fatigue. We want to create a closed loop system to prevent oversaturation of muscle contraction.
