Abstract
A portable monitor was built to record and store electromyographic signals (EMG). The monitor is based on a MC68332 32-bit microcontroller and stores four channels of EMG on a memory-card. The data can afterwards easily be transferred to a host system for further analysis. The device was built to monitor involuntary muscle spasms in spinal cord injury patients but is also used for EMG recording in gait studies.
