Myo Armband

The Myo Armband (http://www.myo.com) lets you remotely control technology with gestures and motion. It reads information from 4 different types of sensors:

EMG (electromyographic)
Gyroscope
Accelerometer
Orientation

Reading the Data

The Reader web app loads sample data captured from the armband and stored into CSV files. The data is read from 4 different files (one for each sensor)

This is a sample read from the accelerometer:

##     timestamp         x        y        z
## 1 1.44329e+15 -0.493652 0.563965 0.700684
## 2 1.44329e+15 -0.489746 0.561035 0.698242
## 3 1.44329e+15 -0.488770 0.565430 0.704590
## 4 1.44329e+15 -0.489746 0.564941 0.703125

## 8 1.44329e+15 -0.498047 0.565430 0.702148

Data Plots

Sensor data is plotted into an easy to visualize format, which lets the user get a better understanding and perform a quick analysis of the sensor data:
