  • MYOLINK esports: Exploring EMG-based Control Interface through Muscle Activation and Inhibition to Enable Common Gameplay Mechanics among Players with and without Physical Disabilities

    Masato Shindo, Shiina Takano, Shuto Sako, Akihiro Miyata, Ryosuke Aoki · 2026 · Proceedings of the 2026 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI '26)

    Shindo, Takano, Sako, Miyata, and Aoki (NTT and Nihon University) propose MYOLINK esports, a paradigm for inclusive competitive gaming that shifts game control from kinematic inputs (body position and posture) to kinetic inputs (muscle force). Four surface-EMG sensors are placed…

  • Open, Accurate, and Calibration-Free Muscle-Computer Interfaces

    Ethan Eddy, Evan Campbell, Erik J. Scheme, Scott Bateman · 2026 · Proceedings of the 2026 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI '26)

    Eddy and colleagues tackle one of the long-standing barriers to practical muscle-computer interfaces (MCIs): that accurate, cross-user gesture recognition from forearm EMG has historically required either per-user calibration or access to closed datasets and proprietary…

  • Alternative Text Entry Using Different Input Methods

    Torsten Felzer, Rainer Nordmann · 2006 · Proceedings of the 8th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (Assets '06)

    This paper presents the HaMCoS (Hands-free Mouse Control System) framework and its text entry applications, designed for people who cannot use their hands to operate a keyboard. HaMCoS works by detecting intentional muscle contractions — specifically single (CE1) and double…

  • How to Operate a PC Without Using the Hands

    Torsten Felzer, Rainer Nordmann · 2005 · Proceedings of the 7th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (Assets '05)

    This demo paper presents HaMCoS (Hands-free Mouse Control System), a biosignal interface developed at Darmstadt University of Technology that enables people with severe physical disabilities to operate a Windows PC using intentional contractions of a single muscle of choice —…
