This project focuses on developing a subcutaneously implantable sensing and telemetry microsystem for electromyographic (EMG), or myoelectric signals (MES), which can be interfaced with an external transceiver module, housed in or on a prosthetic socket. The prototype system will sense EMG signals from the muscles in the residual limb and transmit them out of the body to the external receiver for analysis and adaptive control of a powered prosthetic limb.
