MYO senses your muscles, brings yet another way to control devices (video)

With visions of Minority Report, many a user’s wildly waved at a Kinect in the hopes of controlling gadgets like a symphony conductor. Now there’s another way to make your friends laugh at you thanks to the Thalmic Labs’ MYO armband, which senses motion and electrical activity in your muscles to let you control your computer or other device via Bluetooth 4.0. The company says its proprietary sensor can detect signals right down to individual fingers before you even move them, which — coupled with an extremely sensitive 6-axis motion detector — makes for a highly responsive experience. Feedback to the user is given through haptics in the device, which also packs an ARM processor and onboard Lithium-Ion batteries. MYO is now up for a limited pre-order with Thalmic saying you won’t be charged until it ships near year’s end, while developers can also grab the API. If you’re willing to risk some ridicule to be first on the block to grab one, hit the source.Filed under: WearablesCommentsVia: MacrumorsSource: Myo
