Human-machine interface with muscle signals serves as an important role in the field of wearable robotics. To compensate for the limitations of the existing surface Electromyography (sEMG) based technologies, we previously proposed a noncontact capacitive sensing approach that could record the limb shape changes. The sensing approach frees the human skin from contacting to the metal electrodes, thus enabling the measurement of muscle signals by dressing the sensing front-ends outside of the clothes. We validated the capacitive sensing in human motion intent recognition tasks with the wearable robots and produced comparable results to existing studies. However, the biological significance of the capacitance signals is still unrevealed, which is an indispensable issue for robot intuitive control. In this study, we address the problems of identifying the relationships between the muscle morphological parameters and the capacitance signals. We constructed a measurement system that recorded the noncon-tact capacitive sensing signals and the muscle ultrasound (US) images simultaneously. With the designed device, five subjects were employed and the US images from the gastrocnemius muscle (GM) and the tibialis anterior (TA) muscle during level walking were sampled. We fitted the calculated muscle morphological parameters (the pinnation angles and the muscle fascicle length) and the capacitance signals of the same gait phases. The results demonstrated that at least one-channel capacitance signal strongly correlated to the muscle morphological parameters (R2 > 0.5, quadratic regression). The average R2s of the most correlated channels were up to 0.86 for pinnation angles and 0.83 for the muscle fascicle length changes. The interesting findings in this preliminary study suggest the biological physical significance of the capacitance signals during human locomotion. Future efforts are worth being paid in this new research direction for more promising results.
