One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that generates multiple control signals from an electromyographic (EMG) signal produced by a single muscle. During operation, the system obtains an EMG signal from a single muscle of a subject. The system then processes the EMG signal to generate two or more independent control signals from the single muscle.

Multi-channel myoelectrical control using single muscle

A system that activates a muscle to produce a functional movement in a subject through electrical stimulation is described. During operation, the system first obtains a non-isometric model which defines a functional movement associated with the muscle in response to electrical stimulation of the muscle. Next, the system uses the non-isometric model to compute an electrical stimulation which produces a desired functional movement in the subject. The system then applies the computed electrical stimulation to the muscle to produce the desired functional movement in the subject.

Activating a non-isometric functional movement through electrical stimulation

One embodiment of the present invention provides a system for ionizing airborne particulates. The system includes an insulating substrate and a first electroplated structure on the insulating substrate. This first electroplated structure includes an anchor and a probe structure on the anchor that is separate from the insulating substrate. A second electroplated structure is included on the insulating substrate. The first electroplated structure and the second electroplated structure form a unipolar corona discharge based ionizer
