    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Sports Science
    • Wearable Technology

    Background:

    • Muscle fatigue impacts athletic performance and injury risk.
    • Conventional electromyogram (EMG) uses disposable, skin-irritating contact electrodes.
    • There is a need for comfortable, reusable muscle fatigue monitoring solutions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and evaluate a wearable muscle fatigue detection system.
    • To utilize non-irritating capacitance coupling electrodes for EMG measurement.
    • To compare the performance of the new system against conventional disposable electrodes.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a wearable system with capacitance coupling electrodes.
    • Evaluation of muscle fatigue using EMG signals before and after futsal.
    • Analysis of integrated EMG and intermediate frequency for fatigue assessment.

    Main Results:

    • The developed system demonstrated non-irritating properties and reusability.
    • Half of the subjects exhibited signs of muscle fatigue post-activity.
    • The system showed potential for effective muscle fatigue detection.

    Conclusions:

    • Capacitance coupling electrodes offer a viable, comfortable alternative for EMG-based muscle fatigue monitoring.
    • The wearable system is a promising tool for athletes and sports science.
    • Further validation can establish this system for widespread use in sports.
