In the authors' words

This journal does not let us republish the full abstract. Here are the two sentences Pipette selected, quoted from it. Read the rest at the publisher.

Main result
These findings validate EIM as a robust, real-time biomechanical tool for sensing muscle kinematics and neuromuscular activity during functional movement, expanding its use in assistive robotic control and injury prevention.
Limitation the authors admit
EIM correlated to joint torque only for specific conditions, whereas EIM correlated with muscle length change dynamics across all movements.
