Wearable EMG gesture signal acquisition device based on single-chip microcontroller

Abstract

This paper proposes a wearable gesture signal acquisition device based on single-chip microcontroller for Electromyography (EMG) monitoring. Specifically, this paper proposes an easy-to-detect ECG signal method and applies MCU of Texas Instruments MSP430I series featuring 24-bit sigma-delta ADC and low-power consumption. From experimental results, it still keeps remarkable performance on the wearable device. On the other hand, this paper designs a digital filter to reduce the environmental noise and skin interference through single-chip microcontroller.
