Abstract
System and methods are provided for providing a dynamically-updated musculoskeletal representation of a hand. The system includes a plurality of neuromuscular sensors configured to continuously record a plurality of neuromuscular signals from a user, and at least one computer processor programmed to provide as input to a trained statistical model, the plurality of neuromuscular signals and temporally smooth in real-time an output of the trained statistical model. The system is also programmed to determine, based on the smoothed output of the trained statistical model, position information describing a spatial relationship between two or more connected segments of the musculoskeletal representation, force information describing a force exerted by at least one segment of the musculoskeletal representation, and update the musculoskeletal representation of the hand based, at least in part, on the position information and the force information.
