MyoWare 2.0 Muscle Sensor Development Kit - Medical Sensor Kit - SparkFun KIT-21269

The MyoWare 2.0 Muscle Sensor Development Kit includes MyoWare 2.0 ecosystem sensors and accessories that allow you to measure and visualize muscle activity in the human body. Depending on the configuration, you can visualize muscle parameters in action using the MyoWare 2.0 LED Shield display overlay or read the raw values on the analog output using an Arduino-compatible microcontroller. The modules are equipped with snap-on connectors , thanks to which the MyoWare overlays can be stacked. The set also includes biomedical electrodes that can be used for EEG , ECG and EMG examinations (they are disposable and have a layer of latex gel).

MyoWare 2.0 Muscle Sensor Development Kit - kit with medical sensors - SparkFun KIT-21269.

The MyoWare 2.0 ecosystem consists of overlays that can be easily combined with muscle sensors and Arduino boards to create a universal electromyography (EMG) sensor. The innovative system of used connectors allows easy snapping of the modules, and the analog TRS Jack 3.5 mm connector is used to connect to the microcontroller, by means of which the raw, filtered and rectified electrical activity of the target muscle is measured. This eliminates the need to solder connections between the boards.
