User Manual

Measuring muscle activation via electric potential, referred to as electromyography (EMG), has
traditionally been used for medical research and diagnosis of neuromuscular disorders. However,
with the advent of ever shrinking yet more powerful microcontrollers and integrated circuits, EMG
circuits and sensors have found their way into prosthetics, robotics and other control systems.
