Combination of myoware muscle sensor, bluetooth module and analog receiver

Abstract

© International Research Publication House The article focuses on the lack of the ability to transmit the readings from the Myoware electromyography sensor via an analog signal. They described the method with the connection of a Bluetooth module to solve this problem, since there is a direct need to control, for example, robotic manipulators or a robot arm. As presented in the article, this may be demanded by a large number of the population using a convenient mobile device. They described the method of its use to solve the problems with reading taking from muscles and their further receiving on a smartphone using a Bluetooth module. They described the code development method, as well as the diagram of sensor connecting to the Arduino board. Due to the uniqueness of the measurement, as well as the capabilities of the Myoware muscle sensor, an attempt is made to deviate from the standard procedure measuring the electrical activity of muscle fibers. The code has a very simple form and is understandable to any person who is just learning to program. Thanks to the demonstration of the ports to which the sensor and modem are connected to the microcontroller, it is easy to assemble the entire model. The obtained result will help to advance in the robotic and medical fields.
