🚀 Mujoco MJX now has Sphere-Cylinder collision working in the main branch! Just built it and ran MyoFinger & MyoHand on MPS via JAX (single sim is always slow). Looks like the next version will make MyoSuite fully compatible with MJX! 🔥🦾https://github.com/micropilot/myosuite-mjx (WIP) #MuJoCo #JAX

Future of Teleoperation & Prosthetics

The fusion of sEMG-based control + tendon-driven anthropomorphic robots opens doors to ultra-intuitive robotic hands for surgery, VR/AR, assistive tech, & space applications. This is the future! 🚀 #Robotics #NeuroTech

Seamless Mapping from Humans to Robots

By leveraging sEMG signals + tendon-based robotic actuation, we can create 1:1 mappings between human muscle activations and robotic movements, leading to naturalistic & highly responsive teleoperation. #MyoSuite

sEMG: The Key to Intuitive Control

Surface electromyography (sEMG) sensors, like Meta CTRL-Labs' wristband, capture muscle signals directly from the forearm, providing real-time, non-invasive control of robotic hands—eliminating occlusion issues in vision-based tracking. #emg2pose

The Human Hand: A Benchmark for Robotics

The human hand is the gold standard for dexterity & compliance. Its tendon-driven actuation enables natural, adaptive, and precise control something traditional robotic hands struggle to replicate. #MyoSuite #Robotics myosuite.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

In my experiments, I tested 8 RL methods (e.g., PPO, SAC, TD3) to train policies for accurate finger pose estimation. 🖐️

🎯 The goal: Move the finger into target poses using efficient muscle activations.

Spoiler: SAC performed best, closely followed by PPO!

Here’s a simple sketch showing the anatomy:
👉 Finger joints: MCP, PIP, DIP
👉 Tendons: flexion, abduction, extension

Each muscle-tendon unit works in opposition (like real muscles), providing a rich control challenge.

The MyoFinger model is a simplified representation of a human finger. It has 4 Degrees of Freedom (DoFs) and is controlled by 5 antagonistic muscle-tendon units. myosuite.readthedocs.io/en/latest/su...
