A system for electrical stimulation may comprise a plurality of electrodes and a processor. The processor may be configured to: define a region of interest (ROI) for electrode activation via a first subset of the plurality of electrodes; and define a second subset of electrodes, wherein each electrode within the second subset of electrodes are positioned away from the ROI such that the average distance between each electrode and the ROI is maximized. The second group of electrodes may be defined via low-discrepancy sequences or an equidistributed sequence. The plurality of electrodes may be part of a wearable garment or an implantable device. The system may be for muscle stimulation or neural simulation.

Virtual patch electrodes for electrical stimulation

Disclosed is a muscle stimulation system, comprising a wearable garment including a plurality of electrodes, and a processor; wherein the processor is configured to define one or more regions of interest (ROI) for electrode activation via a subset of the plurality of electrodes, and provide electrical muscle stimulation, via the subset of the plurality of electrodes, to the ROI.
