Muscle Sensor Surface EMG Electrodes allow you to control your projects with your muscles. Pair the electrodes with a muscle sensor and a microcontroller (ie. Raspberry Pi, Arduino, or Beagle Bone Black) and you are ready to create a DIY low-cost version of an EMG or an electromyography.
According to Wikipedia, electromyography is an electrodiagnostic medicine technique for evaluating and recording the electrical activity produced by skeletal muscles. Use these sensors in prosthetics, robotics, and so much more. Once you attach the sensor to a large muscle (like your bicep) you can flex and measure the signal spike as an analog voltage.
The H124SG Covidien electrode type has a pre-gelled adhesive side with non-irritating gel, especially developed to prevent allergic reactions. The foam electrode is latex free and therefore suitable for every skin type.
The snap-on connector can easily be pushed on or removed from the electrode lead on the MyoWare. Therefore you have optimal user friendliness as you dispose this electrode after every session! No more greasy electrodes as the H124SG will cover the surface of the electrode. This also extends the life of your electrodes.
Note: MyoWare Muscle Sensor and microcontroller NOT included
