In order to improve the quality of life of the elderly or persons who lost their own limb due to an accident or sickness, many power-assist robots and myoelectric artificial limbs have been proposed. Many of these robots are controlled based on biological signals. Specifically, an EMG signal is one of the widely used biological signal for the control of those robots. On the other hand, there are many small devices such as a microcontroller or the small size PC. In this paper, we try to estimate the motion of the upper-limb based on EMG signals by Raspberry Pi.
