neuroscience, biomechanics and exercise physiology, but also in applied disciplines like
clinical neurophysiology, ergonomics and sports sciences. To increase the usefulness of
surface EMG, we contributed to the introduction and application of a spatiotemporal variant
of the usual single channel surface EMG techniques, called high-density surface EMG (HD-
