MyoWare Muscle Sensor
Discontinued
Control your next project with muscle power using the MyoWare Muscle Sensor. This sensor measures the electrical activity of skeletal muscles (electromyography / EMG) and outputs an analog voltage signal proportional to muscle contraction. Simply attach the sensor to a large muscle like your bicep, flex, and read the signal spike with any microcontroller that has an analog input.
Designed for hobbyists, students, and makers, the MyoWare makes it easy to build a low-cost DIY electromyograph for use in prosthetics, robotics, gesture control, and interactive projects. Pair it with surface EMG electrodes and an Arduino or Raspberry Pi to get started.
Key Features
- Analog EMG Output – Outputs a voltage signal proportional to muscle activity
- Single-Supply Operation – Powered from your microcontroller's voltage rail
- Compact Form Factor – Mounts directly over the target muscle with snap-on electrodes
- Hobbyist-Friendly – Designed for makers and students, no medical expertise required
Ideal For
- Muscle-controlled robotics and prosthetics
- Gesture recognition and human-computer interaction
- Biomedical engineering and STEM education
- Interactive art installations
