| dc.description.abstract | Muscle fatigue measurement is crucial in
various domains, including occupational health and
safety, as muscle fatigue adversely affects cognitive and
motor performance, leading to reduced productivity and
increased injury risks. Wearable systems offer promising
solutions for muscle fatigue monitoring, enabling
continuous and long-term assessment of biomedical
signals in unattended settings with comfort and non-
intrusiveness. These systems facilitate performance
optimization, injury prevention, training load
management, individualized training programs,
rehabilitation, and recovery. Surface electromyography
(sEMG) signals are commonly utilized by some systems to
extract features and classify muscle fatigue. Additionally,
the utilization of goniometers, which are used in kinematic
analysis, and other innovative approaches like tissue
Doppler imaging, demonstrates promising potential for
detecting localized muscle fatigue in wearable devices.
This review article explores the challenges and
advancements in fatigue monitoring through wearable
devices and discusses the diverse applications of these
technologies. | en_US |
