Immense Power in a Tiny Package: Wearables Based on Electrical Muscle Stimulation

Electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) devices have been used in rehabilitation medicine since the 1960s to regenerate lost motor functions, but, more recently, researchers have started to experiment with EMS to create interactive systems. EMS miniaturizes well, easily lending itself to pervasive compu...
