MyoWare 2.0 Reference Cable

The MyoWare® 2.0 Reference Cable serves as an extension for the MyoWare 2.0 Muscle Sensor's reference pin. This product allows for easy insertion of the pin into its housing, followed by placement of a biomedical sensor pad into the electrode snap. Once set up, the reference cable's snap pin can be adhered to a separate part of the body such as a bony part of the elbow or a nonadjacent muscle near a targeted muscle where the MyoWare 2.0 Muscle Sensor's built-in reference pin is unable to reach.

It's important to note that the reference electrode socket remains active even with the cable inserted. To disable the socket, cut the jumper trace on the top side of the sensor. To re-enable the socket, short the jumper pads with solder. The MyoWare 2.0 Muscle Sensor, Power Shield, and EMG pads are not included with the Reference Cable and will need to be purchased separately.

The MyoWare® 2.0 ecosystem includes shields that easily interface with the MyoWare® 2.0 Muscle Sensor. This low-cost, Arduino-compatible, all-in-one electromyography (EMG) sensor from Advancer Technologies is part of an innovative connector system. Users can easily snap shields together with a compact low profile and connect to a microcontroller's analog input to measure raw, filtered, and rectified electrical activity of a target muscle. This eliminates the need to solder connections between boards.

This product is a result of a collaboration with Brian Kaminski from Advancer Technologies. A portion of each sale goes back to them for product support and continued development.
