A Bus-Based Smart Myoelectric Electrode/Amplifier—System Requirements

The evaluation of a bus-based smart myoelectric electrode/amplifier is described that is to be used in conjunction with a multi-function prosthetic hand controller. The smart electrode/amplifier was designed to meet power consumption and size specifications of commercially available myoelectric amplifiers used for prosthetic control applications while providing a number of additional features. This paper investigates the electrode/amplifier...
