Description
The Tinkertron EMG switch is a switch that can be activated by very small individual muscle activation.
Uniquely designed, easy to use EMG switch device can be used as a caregiver alert, as a mouse click for computer access, as a switch input for speech generating devices, and as a control switch for power wheelchairs.
It’s small but has rapid response rates at 10ms! EMG Switch senses muscle activations and provides switch closure, threshold adjustment and comes with a standard 3.5mm connector to control switch activated devices. It also has a built-in digital signal processor that extracts intentional activations from weak muscles.
Tinkertron switch senses the tiny signals which activate the muscle. The use of the muscle control signals from your nervous system to your muscle makes the switch very easy to activate. The sensor is connected directly on the muscle site which makes attachment simple. The sensor does not depend on motion so it remains in the proper position even as you move around.
