Abstract
An apparatus for the discrimination of myoelectric potential patterns, which operates with a procedure comprising the steps of discriminantly screening instruction signals from myoelectric potential signals issuing from the subject's body, performing arithmetic operations of the linear-discriminant functions on the instruction signals against the gravity coefficients fixed in advance based on the data of average myoelectric potential patterns from the modes of motions involved, and classifying the signal of the largest value selected from the results of said arithmetic operations with respect to the prescribed mode of motion.
