Abstract A microprocessor-based system for the myoelectric control of one, two or three degrees of freedom has been designed. The electromyographic (EMG) activity is picked up by one or two sets of surface electrodes, depending on the number of degrees of freedom to be controlled. The system described makes it possible to control the movements in either an on/off or a proportional mode. A graphic display provides feedback information to the operator and the person in charge of the evaluation/training session. The system is designed as an evaluation and training equipment for use in the laboratory. It is applicable to both above-elbow and below-elbow amputees.
