• With the development in the fields of neurophysiology, clinical diagnosis of muscular degenerative diseases and medical rehabilitation, the electrophysiological reactions of muscles stimulated by micro-force have drawn the attention of scholars both at home and abroad. This paper proposes a new type of vibrotactile device, which can produce micro-stimulating force with variable magnitude, adjustable stimulation depth and presettable frequency. After the micro-stimulating force was applied on the abdominal point of the test finger of the subject, by detecting the surface electromyography(sEMG) signal of the corresponding finger extensor muscle by means of sEMG sensor, perceiving the magnitude of stimulating force by means of force sensor, detecting of surface micro-force stimulation depth by means of infrared sensor, then the effect of micro-stimulating force with different parameters applied on muscle could be explored. And so, reasonable stimulus parameters could be selected in tactile stimulation experiment. This laid the foundation of exploring the mechanisms of mechanical vibration parameters and the subjects' fatigue degree in future studies.
