This study investigates the use of surface electromyography (sEMG) sensors in measuring muscle activity and mapping it onto wearable textile stretch sensors using a basic deep learning model, the Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP). Wearable sensors are gaining attention for their ability to monitor physiological data while maintaining user comfort. A three-stage experimental approach was employed to evaluate the mapping process. In the first stage, the impact of applying a low-pass finite impulse response (FIR) filter was assessed by comparing filtered and unfiltered sEMG data. The results showed minimal impact on accuracy (R-squared ~ 0.77), as RMS preprocessing effectively reduced noise. In the second stage, adding tensile velocity data improved the model&rsquo:s predictive performance (R-squared ~ 0.80), emphasizing the importance of integrating dynamic variables. In the third stage, data from multiple muscle groups, including the biceps brachii, forearm muscles, and triceps brachii, were incorporated, achieving the highest R-squared value of ~0.94. These findings establish wearable textile stretch sensors as reliable tools for monitoring muscle activity during exercise. By demonstrating improved accuracy with a basic MLP model, this study provides a foundation for advancing wearable health monitoring systems and exploring additional physiological parameters and activities.
