Muscle Mouse

Hey all,

We've put together a neat little project called the Muscle Mouse. The Muscle Mouse uses our 3rd generation Muscle Sensors to make physical therapy more fun by incorporating video games into the usually boring and repetitious exercises. The Muscle Mouse also helps disabled gamers (even those with minimal muscle control) to play video games.

Besides the Muscle Sensor, at the heart of the device is an Arduino Pro Mini and a SparkFun BlueTooth module breakout board. You can find all the project files and documentation in the links below.

Let me know if anythings not clear or if you have any questions on how to use this tech on one of your own projects.

Cheers,
Brian

    Nice! ... For a myo-electric trainer, about 20 years ago, we hacked remote controlled cars so that patients could practice their muscle coordination that way.

    That sounds like it would be fun... might have to put that on the list of future projects!
