Using our muscles to control things is the way that most of us are accustomed to doing it. We push buttons, pull levers. move joysticks... but what if we could take the buttons. levers and joysticks out of the equation and control it with our muscles? The ® 2.0 Muscle Sensor is an for -compatible, electromyography () sensor from Technologies that allows you to do just that! The 2.0 Muscle Sensor has been redesigned from the with a easy-to-use, compact design and upgr aded with the latest and greatest chipset improving sensor performance and reliability. The innovative snap connector system eliminates the need to solder connections for the 2.0 ecosystem. lIt's that easy: stick on a few electrodes (not included). read the output voltage and flex some muscles! The 2.0 Muscle Sensor measures muscle activity through the electric potential ofthe muscle, common referred to as electromyography ( or sEMG for short). When your brain tells your muscle to flex. it sends an electrical signal to your muscle to start recruiting motor units (the bundles of muscle fibers that generate the force beh your muscles). The harder you flex, the more motor units are recruited to generate great muscle force. The greater the number of motor units, the more the electrical activity of your muscle increases. 2.0 Muscle Sensor analyze the filtered and rectified electrical activity of a muscle and output a signal (0-VIN volts, where VIN signifies the voltage of the power source) that represents how hard the muscle is being flexed. The 2.0 Muscle Sensor builds upon its previous wearable design that allows you to attach biomedical sensor pads directly to the board itself. rid of those pesky cables. This board includes a single-supply voltage of +3.3V to +5V. three output modesreverse polarity protected power pins, and indicator LEDs. Additionally, we have deve Ioped a few (such as the Cable. Power. and LED to name a few) that can attach to the
