| Abstract(in English) | The mechanomyogram (MMG) is a recording of the low-frequency vibrations detectable over a contracting muscle and it is associated with the mechanical activities of a number of muscle fibers. Various transducers are used to record the MMG, including accelerometer, piezoelectric contact sensor, condenser microphone and laser distance sensor. The present investigation clarified the mechanical variable (acceleration, velocity or displacement) reflected by the MMG signal from each transducer. Namely, accelerometer indicates acceleration, and piezoelectric contact sensor, condenser microphone and laser distance sensor show displacement. In addition, an electronic equipment for the MMG measurement consisting of accelerometer, the fourth-order bandpass filter and AC amplifier was newly developed. |
